In no way shape or form can that be described as a tax. If you want to look at it that way, PAYE income tax is not a tax, as you never actually receive it. Pay As You Earn. The clue is in the name. It's EXACTLY like bedroom tax. Money deducted from that which is given to you. It's nothing like the reduction in benefits which has been given the misnomer by some of Bedroom Tax which in fact isn't a tax at all. I will endeavour to explain once more and for the last time. Money is given by an employer to their employee as wages in return for duties performed. Some of that money is then deducted by the employer acting as unpaid tax collector and forwarded to HM Treasury. That is a tax. An amount of money generally called a benefit is given to a citizen to help them when in need. The government of the day then decides that from a future date that amount will be reduced. That is not a tax it is a reduction in the amount given by the state as a gift.
