Debate House Prices
In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

A future fair for all?

Has the definition of the word Fair changed?
I don't remember it meant taking from the hard-working to support the work shy and bloat the state?
Is it Fair that taxes are removed from me every month and given out to people on benefits who have no intention of EVER getting a job?
Is it Fair that I am paying for families with 3 generations that have NEVER worked?
Is it Fair that most people I know wait till they have kids so that they can give them a good upbringing, then watch as their taxes are poured into supporting families who have no intention of working and don't care how many kids they have? More kids= more money from the state.
Is it Fair that I go out to work everyday and support layabouts sitting watching sky TV?
Is it Fair that my pensions have been ransacked by Brown and yet I have to watch as £100 from every man, woman and child in my area every year goes towards funding bullet proof, golden Public sector pensions?
Is it Fair that I have been responsible with my savings and not got into debt and I now have to watch as the value of my savings decreases to pick up the tab for people who were stupid and got into bother on the never never?
I could go on and on but I might be wrong, maybe the definition of Fair changed when I wasn't looking....0 -
