Sorry Wilf but you just are not getting it. Road tax pays for roads !!! no chance bud. You think that paying for nothing is fair, so there is no point in me trying to convince you otherwise. SImple fact is we all have to contribute or the country would be f****d, simple,. unfortunately some people convince themselves that its OK to just let everbody else pay, and justify it to themselves buy getting BUPA. By the way, almost everything you have stated above is incorrect. Road tax don't pay for roads?.....well what's it for then?......surely if I am being sold something it's illeg

I actually though Jimmy Carr was a prick before all this but I must say, he has gone way up in my estimation ! Lol lol

Council tax pays for the old bill Road tax pays for the road I pay business rates but I don't get f**k all for my money, not even my bin collected I have to pay to take my business rubbish to the tip Social development ?....no sorry, you got me there, I have absolutely f**k all idea what that means or is? I pay for the NHS and private for my kids ( I don't trust them with my kids health) Help for small business?....no sorry, you got me again as no one has ever offered me any! I think it's you that's not getting it mate, we get so much less than we actually pay for.......but

Strickly thats not true, its his money so he is not thieving anything, the way I look at it is in any other walk of life you want value for your money.........we obviously DONT get that from the state but they put a big gun to your head and say "you have to pay" and they make up the amount!! The real scandal is that folk have to pay so much if you ask me!! Really ?? So he doesn`t steal the local amenities that he uses, ?? He`s quite happy for his elderly relatives to be looked after by the NHS but won`t pay for it. If his missus gets assaulted and dragged down a dark alley he wil

I agree on both the fact that it is out of control, and that it's not very good. However, i don't like the idea of ending up like the states. Free medical care is a brilliant thing, it's just a shame so many folk abuse it. I agree mate, the theory is fantastic and I am all for the most vulnerable people having access to free health care......but as with most nationalised industry's the service is shite. If the NHS was a carpentry service and your door fell off they would say " wait 3 weeks and see if it sorts it's self out" ???.....then they would come round 3 times and tin

I would get rid of it tomorrow if I had my way, it's an out of control monster that frankly isn't very good.

My arse... your probably nearly as well of as me Not after your collection I ain't !! Lol lol

I am just a working bloke like any other, very f*****g far from well off......he ain't my prime minister and he certainly ain't Tory !!! He is another left wing prick squawking about how working blokes should hand over all their money so it can be frittered away on daft f*****g Carey/sharey dreams !!

If folk had to pay to see a GP instead of all these dopy c**ts who are sat down there at the first sign of a runny nose, or a bumped big toe or the slightest ache or pain it would free up GPs to spend more time on people who actually need it, do a better job and have a lot less on their plate. Thus they would work less and provide a better service......so they wouldn't have to feel bad about having to contribute more Money into their pension instead of me having to do it!

We work 5 months of the year for the government, how is that moral or right? Its nothing more than a legalised protection racket. The NHS costs everyone around £3 grand a year, you can get private healthcare for £1500!!! Europe costs us all around a grand Welfare costs us all around £2 grand each And this is taking into account the WHOLE population, the fact is its only working people paying for this so what does that come to? If we just paid for the things a state should provide like police, army and the basics of keeping the transport network running we would all be paying a f

They all want to slag off "tax avoiders".....I bet most folk wouldn't give a monkeys about tax if they could see real value for their money but the fact is, all they do is wank your money down the khazi on a load of old shite! The fact is, it doesn't actually cost very much for a government to do the essentials that a government SHOULD do and so by that fact income tax would not actually by very much at all. It's only as high as it is to pay for all the other shit that most of us don't want. All this " it's morally repugnant " rubbish from the politicians......these are the same pe

When I saw that you had started the topic Scothunter and the name of the topic, I thought it would be about white Anglo Saxon Protestants ! Lol lol

Why would a bank " do you a favour" ?......what reason would they have ? They are out to get every last penny of profit out of the job, same as any business should. Will anyone complain when they switch the tap off to Greece?....I doubt it. The only thing different about a country or joe soap in the street is the size of the number!......when they can't see any more to be earned out of the job they will cash it in. We are all just worker ants, live with it!
-
I understand that mate, he got that call right but I don't trust that any political decision is done just for the good of the people, they didn't do it then cause they knew they would loose the vote on Europe instead they swerved it and pulled the rug from under us at Lisbon.......
-
I don't think we can give one eyed Gordon too much credit.....he was unpopular anyway and like all politicians he never had the bottle to call a referendum on the Europe question......they all know we would reject it. It just so happens that we didn't sign up under his watch.....but it could have been anyone

Markbrick is letting him out of his basement for the afternoon as a treat!

As I said mate, I wonder if an oil man ever gos to work and thinks " I am killing the planet here" or a builder lays a brick and thinks " this had to get dug out the ground and destroyed a local habitat" .......that's effects everyone just the same as finance, except you notice a cut in your wages more than you notice acid rain or a quarry. The answer is of course they don't, they don't think about it at all, they just earn their money and crack on........no different.
-
I get you mate, I really do but based on that logic all builders are c**ts! They make their money by using materials that are destroying the earth.....once you have dug a ton of ballast out the ground it stays dug, it ain't growing back! Same as oil, once it's burnt, it's burnt and it's poisoned us a bit in the process too......money, finance call it what you will is no different.......it's all just commodity and most commoditys have a victim, be it a blokes house, his freedom or the destruction of the earth. JMHO
-
As I said mate, Rupert paid his money and he took the risk fair play to him.....if he had been a property developer or a computer manufacturer no one would bat an eyelid. The fact that politicians whore themselves to him says more about them than it does about him IMHO I don't buy news papers or read them as a rule so it don't effect me one bit boss. Atb
-
Why don't the Murdochs deserve all the power with the media mate?.....he bought it, he paid for it so it's his? It only matters if you choose to read it or watch it and believe it. Why should anyone compromise to help others for monetary reasons?....again, this implies that money should have morals which is does not and nor should it have. This is my point, it's a commodity in itself, like coffee or wheat or copper or oil.....we don't expect wheat or oil to have morality so why should money? I don't worry that a few families make the rules, my time would be better spent worrying how
-
I agree the ordinary bloke has commitments and there are not many ways out for him....that's just how it is. Not fair but then life's not fair mate, there's no better system than capitalism yet invented.....it gives everyone an equal chance to do something......if you have the will, the brains, the work ethic and a lot of luck then the sky is the limit. To be honest it boils my piss seeing suedo socialists saying blokes taking full advantage of the system and earning a lot of money are immoral.....good luck to them I say, I don't envy the likes of Bill Gates or Fred Goodwin.....they knew the
-
Only the small man worries about the morals of money, but the thing is it has no morals......it just "is" The ordinary bloke worries about who he owes, he worries about going skint, he feels shame at the thought of bankruptcy.......big business feels none of these things. That's why people in high finance can go skint time and again but will still find investors for the next big deal.......money has no feelings and why should it? At the end of the day it's all just numbers on a bit of paper, so get your cut and f**k it IMHO Do you think the leaders of Greece will be embarrassed when they
-
That's what I am saying about all the Euro scare mongering with regard to debt, if Greece tipped over tomorrow it would not make a blind bit of difference.....the world wouldn't end, the sun would still rise and all the short sellers would make a shit load of money and so the world would turn. Banks don't do chance bets, they have covered every possible scenario so no matter what, they win! Stu is bang on about overdrafts as well, as soon as you sign the bit of paper you no longer own your business......I would never have one.
-
As an aside, IMHO we should forget all this dream of Britain once again being a manufacturing powerhouse.....never gonna happen. We are too small and our labour laws to restrictive to be competitive in mass production, we should focus on the things we are good at like technology, high quality products, moving money and service. The days of mass production are gone.
