    Maybe I’m gonna be bashed for this but isn’t this a good solution?

    No, it’s an absolutely horrible solution. It’s yet another tax to the average Joe, playing out people with and without children against each other, while the rich continue to hoard more and more wealth, draining everyone else dry. The government is planning to reduce the benefits of parents at the very same time, so their goal is most certainly not some fairness or balance between parents and non-parents, they just fuck everyone over for the benefit of a few rich elites.
