OPINION & COMMENT The Knesset plenum gave a preliminary approval to a proposal of UTJ MK Rabbi Shmuel Halpert to link the children's grants distributed by the National Insurance Institute (NII -- Bituach Leumi) to the average wage rather than the cost of living. Every other grant distributed by the government is linked to the average wage, which rises faster than the cost of living in good times, on the principle that these are income supplements and should keep pace with rising national income.

Ben-basset, The Worst Attack on
the Torah World Yet Sholom. Recently the Barak government proposed a sweeping change to Israel's tax laws that, if passed, could be more devastating against the yeshivas and their supporters, the talmidei chachomim and Israel's poor, than anything else yet proposed by the Leftists. Unfortunately many people have been slow to wake up to evils of the Ben-basset tax proposal, but I am glad to read in this week's English Yated Ne'eman that your rabbonim are finally beginning to wake up to the dangers.
