Can't imagine you produce much wealth, you spend all your time on the net:rotfl:You really shouldn't mistake debt for wealth McTavish it will land you in lots of bover.0 -
I think it was in one of the Michael Moore films where George Bush was talking to a woman who held down 3 jobs to support her family. And everyone clapped! So, let me get this right - it's a good thing that a woman has to work likely 70-80 hours a week just to get by?
Same mentality here. Oh if we all work hard, we'll be ok - what a sham :rolleyes:

Is that the one about pensions being inversely proportional to company stability..?
According to the video I linked to it was the longer a thread becomes, the closer the probablility that someone will be called a Nazi or compared to Hitler decomes to 1.
I think I prefer your definition however.0 -
It's not rocket science that if you work hard, you should have the money that you have made to spend. Why should you work hard, pay lots of taxes and give it away to those who can choose not to work?
Why should I work hard and pay my taxes whilst rich people don't pay taxes and contribute nothing? Why do they get to keep their money in off shore bank accounts and pay a fortune to tax accountants to make sure they avoid paying tax whilst the rest of don't? They don't call them the "Idle Rich" for nothing.
Stop picking on the little guy.If you keep doing what you've always done - you will keep getting what you've always got.0
