I am saying that as a basic objective individuals should be free to make their own decisions and take their own responsibility for what they do, having been given a decent education in the first place. I do not believe in the state as a supplier of services and I do not believe in the socialist notion of equality.
I also firmly believe that the hypocrites who pretend to be socialists on the basis that they "care about the poor and disadvantaged" are the scum of society.
For a start socialism does nothing to help anyone except those who control the levers of power, and secondly "champagne socialists" wear socialism as a badge of moral integrity to hide the fact that they dont give a s**t about the poor at all. What is so awful about these people is that they never therefore question or challenge the state and in so doing condemn the poor to a life of state dependency.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment
