Well NI's gone up, hope you all enjoyed your two steps forward, one step back pay rise this year! Ringfenced for the Health Sevice is it. Why don't they just make hospitals out of bales of cash? Apparently the amount spent per capita on the NHS would buy us all decent private cover. And it ain't ringfenced, every pound from the NI rise is a pound from elsewhere they wont put in.
Council tax is not only used to bail out useless areas of the country, additionally the government is distributing less and less back to the local authorities effectively forcing them to raise local taxation to make up the shortfall. (Central taxation by proxy or stealth taxation is the buzzphrase). Of course the looming rebanding wont reflect the terminally stupid rises in houseprices of late so you can all expect to have your bills double next time round.
Why not be done with it a incorporate council tax into the main part of our taxation. It all gets processed through the treasury, and its 'progressive' so lets stop pissing around and lump it all together. Oh no, of course that wont happen will it, as that would be far too transparent.
Additionally did you know 1 IN 4 work for the government now. This must be some sort of critical mass at 25% as this is the same as the % of the population who were party informants in the old eastern bloc countries during the cold war.
You get enough of the country entangled in maintaining the status quo then you have very little unrest to worry about. The remaining real producers get taxation racheted up to provide sustenance for this grotesquely fat parasite. Just how much taxation will you pay before you revolt? Oh yeah you wont do that, only scrotes run around screaming themselves hoarse and smashing stuff up and they pay **** all anyway.
Unfortunately the milk producers, that's you guys with anything worth having, are more likely to write a stiff letter, and if your really mad - threaten to leave the country! Thus the producers are easy to control, effectively self police. The potential forces of change (angry scrotes) aren't, but they are too ill-organised, underesourced and ill-informed to pose any threat.
OK? :feelbetternow:
