Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

I'll keep on saying this, if you actually look at the breakdown of your council tax you will find out what section has increased the most over the last ten years:
