Single dog's unique trick "punishment": British singles pay thousands of pounds of "single tax" every year.

Single dog is going to cry again. According to the Daily Mail, a study by the Home Economics Institute found that being single in Britain means bearing an intangible financial "punishment", and each person has to spend at least several thousand pounds more each year. From buying a bottle of milk to renting a house, to paying taxes to buy insurance, "single tax" is everywhere.

"Today's society is more tolerant of being single than before, but we are still suffering from being single economically." Kai Nuo Lin Brewer, director of consumer affairs of the British Home Economics Association, called on large companies to pay attention to the growing single consumer market and abolish these "single taxes".

In Britain, the parliamentary tax for a couple or a couple renting a house is 1670, with an average of 835 per person. However, singles living in the same apartment have to pay 1235, which is 400 more than the average couple. Because the preferential rate of parliamentary tax for single renting houses is only 25%, while couples can be as low as 50%. Even in family insurance, the difference between each partner is 83.68, while singles have to pay 65,438 +073.78. The average car insurance for a partner is 905, while a single person has to pay 1 102. In the top gym with swimming pool, tennis court and fitness suite, the annual membership fee for couples is 2,478 pounds, with an average of 239 pounds per person/kloc-0, but single members need to pay more 177 pounds than couples. Even national trust members with a total price of only a few tens of pounds have a price difference of 12 pounds.

According to the Daily Mail, the difference in expenses between singles and their partners is more obvious during the trip, and no one shares the cost of staying in a hotel. On a Mediterranean cruise, a person has to pay double the price for the cabin, up to 2000 pounds. To buy a ticket on the same flight, singles need to bear the booking fee of 15. Similarly, the researchers found that the average person who buys a train ticket is 15.8 pounds, while the single person on the same train needs 24 pounds to bear the booking fee.
