This isn't really a fair poll, as the alternative to being ripped off paying the banks higher interest rates (on what would be lower mortgages) would be the current situation, to be ripped off by the baby boomers demanding 100k profit on their 2 bed terraces.0

I suspect the last thing this is meant to be is a fair poll, like most of mine.0 -

No kidding....
Just like the other one.the alternative to being ripped off paying the banks higher interest rates (on what would be lower mortgages) would be the current situation, to be ripped off by the baby boomers .
So you'd rather reward the banksters and pay for their record bonuses, than allow someone's dear sweet old granny to have a slightly more comfortable retirement?

Bankers will always try and achieve the maximum profit, to pay themselves the maximum bonus.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

And a public poll so Carol's multiple sock puppets can post if they like, but we'll all know.
