The policy analysis defines United States federal child welfare policy: the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008. Youth involved with the Child Welfare System are among the country 's most vulnerable population and state continued funding is needed for successful transition into adulthood.

Ever since the Great depression of 1930’s, the Fed has been trying to adopt a mix of fiscal and monetary policy to combat the various issues cropped up.

The UK taxation system subjects individuals’ incomes, including interest on savings, pensions, and salaries to income tax on the basis of ‘bands’ – the first £ 9,440 (which recently rose to £ 10,000) is exempt from taxation, with any income between this limit and £32,010 attracting a basic rate of 20%, that between £32,011 and £ 150,000 attracting a tax rate 40%, and anything in excess of £150,000 attracting a rate of 45% (BBC, 2014). Prior to April 2013, earnings exceeding £150,000 were taxed at a rate of 50% - the 5p rate of income tax - such that a person earning £200,000 would be taxed at 40% for the first £150,000 and an additional £25,000 for the extra £50,000, as opposed to the £22,500 they would pay under the current 45% rate. The government’s decision to reduce the high-band rate from 50% to 45% in April last year was aimed at stimulating economic growth and facilitating the process of recovery. The Labor Party’s plan is geared towards facilitating income redistribution by raising the high-band rate of income taxation from the current 45% to the original 50%.

The historical policy that contributed to the changes in welfare happened during the Clinton administration “the passage of legislation that replaced AFDC with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) represented a giant step backward in the effort to provide economic security for children. The passage of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), replaced AFDC with TANF and as a result, it canceled the federal guarantee of support of poor children that had been established earlier by the 1935 Social Security Act” (Chapin, 2014, p.101). It disregarded the needs of children living in poverty, and for mothers who had young children, and limited education or job skills. This legislation also had

At a time when the cost of living continues to rise due to governments, our main goal is to reduce the amount of impact tax rises have on us. Assuming that one doesn't belong to the set of individuals who can afford to pay someone to reduce their taxes, the central action one can take is to try to increase the amount of revenue, we as individuals make through salaries, dividends, and other income.
