A government incentive is paid for out of tax payers pockets. It would literally mean taking money out of my pocket, spending most of it on social events, and then giving me the minority of it back.

Opting out would mean I was paying for other peoples parties when I can barely at this point cover medical expenses.

This remains a terrible idea.



But doing some public works in the community in lieu of a portion of local/council tax? That could work.


Alternatively you could just not charge that tax then.
