State pensions to be linked to earnings not inflation...I wonder why ?
No prizes for this one
Answer:
It is common sense.
In this global economy Chinese,Indians and others will do the same jobs for less.
Even the public sector, which is reasonably protected as it is difficult to outsource, is starting to see the writing on the wall. People are going abroad for health care !
With the governement effectively bankrupt,the public sector services will go into decline.
Only the privileged few who can isolate their jobs from the global economy eg politicians, chief execs will be ‘ok jack’.
