welfare subsidies

They have been swollen by the 35-hour limit on the work week and the burden of social welfare contributions for programmes such as family subsidies – which would be more fairly funded by the entire population, via sales taxes such as value added tax.

每周35小时工作制、以及家庭补贴等项目的社会福利负担，让我们的国家苦不堪言&更公平的方式应该是，通过增值税等销售税，由整个人口来负担这些开支。

As much as subsidies and welfare programmes are important, sexlessness is also a critical issue in this problem.

（生育）津贴和福利计划固然重要，但在这个问题上，性冷淡也是一个关键性的因素。

That would be unpalatable unless there were a stronger welfare system and retraining subsidies.

除非拥有更加强健的福利体系与再培训补贴措施，否则此举带来的后果并不可口；
