FTFYSocialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

Great for short term contracts, as it leaves more money to waste on the important things like booze, birds and fast carsSocialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

Ah, different tax system perhaps; here in NL it's all a big profit minimalisation exercise. Eat, drink and sleep in luxury near clientco so you don't pay yourself enough to have to hand 52% to the taxman, drive a classic car with low company car tax and enormous fuel consumption, always travel first class, buy all your gadgets on the business etc etc. I must be one of the richest minimum wagers in the country.Originally posted by MicrosoftBob View PostThey're cheap, that is the only good reason to use them
