8 means-test
∎ to means-test sb = faire une enquête sur les revenus de quelqu'un avant de lui accorder une aide sociale;∎ all applicants are means-tested tous les candidats font l'objet d'une enquête sur leurs revenusEven though vast chunks of state spending - from university grants to income support - are means-tested, the term still carries a real stigma, especially for pensioners. The universal principle - embodied in the welfare state through the state pension, child benefit and NHS - has a binding effect. Poor people feel they are getting something as of right and rich people get something back for their taxes, discouraging them from opting out altogether.
