I propose that real estate and movable property that is a necessity or provides a basic middle-class standard should not be counted as assets when calculating child benefit. A house with an attached plot of land of, say, 500 to 1 000 m2 should not be counted as an asset, as we already pay tax to the state on this every year. Similarly, cars up to and including the middle price bracket should not be counted as assets, as the €8000 limit for a car encourages the ownership of old, not safe enough cars, which also pollute the environment more than new cars. Children's savings accounts and savings accounts to solve housing problems should also be excluded. I also suggest that the value of cars, like housing, should take into account the number of family members, because families with more than 3 children need a car that seats more than 5, and that is much more expensive than a 5-seater. Reason: Under the current law, parents who save, buy a new safe car or save for children or for a home are treated unequally. Their income is taken into account twice when calculating child benefit: the year they get their salary and then again if they use the money to buy a car or put it in the bank and save for a home. They also pay taxes to the state on this and only have expenses. But the income of parents who spend the same amount on holidays only counts once. Parents who keep their money in banks abroad also do not have it counted in the child benefit calculation.
