(ANSA) – ROME, SEPTEMBER 11 – “Change the rules for tax deductions in our country and, regardless of income, give those with more dependent children the opportunity to pay less tax, even at the cost of eliminating or reviewing some tax deductions for people who do not have children to increase them instead for those who have children”. This is the project that the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti is reportedly working on, which is reported on the front page of an article in Il Foglio, signed by the director Claudio Cerasa, who essentially hypothesizes “a family quotient for deductions, with a cost of the measure already estimated at between five and six billion euros”. Minister Giorgetti – writes Il Foglio – has already brought the issue to the attention of the Prime Minister. And – the newspaper continues – “to all political opponents who pretend not to understand the problem, Giorgetti will try to explain that the low birth rate is not a social problem but an economic drama. There are no perfect recipes, true, there are only imperfect recipes that can displease someone. But if Italy does not do something to reverse the trend, and show the sense of emergency, it will mean that our country, as Draghi said two days ago when speaking about Europe, will surrender, for not wanting to change, to “a slow agony”. Lower taxes (and more deductions) for those who have children: if not now, when?”. (ANSA).
