That's not what your missus tells me.

It's what yo mamma says...

So is my Johnson .

The days when public servants could retire at 50 are long gone.
The tax inspectors day is long and hard nowadays.

So is my Johnson but that does not mean there are no lazy feckers with a huge sense of entitlement taking much and contributing little.

[TaxInspector]

Then what do we have government for? To slap their backs and bask in the wealth and glory of no more boom and bust? Why are we paying out hard earned money to enable people like you to retire on fat pensions at 50?

Certain categories of the financial industry have saddled the country with an unpayable bill. That is not what works best for society.

Don't forget the IT contractor scum.

And their sugar daddy agents

[TaxInspector]

there we go just as I have always thought- taxation is all about punishment and not about what works best for society.

The UK Debt to GDP ratio doubled from about 45% to 90% between 2008 and now. That was mainly to re-capitalise the banks. That huge burden will be left for all taxpayers to bear for generations - if the 1% caused it, they're getting away with murder paying only 30% of income tax.

I don't see a lot of poor bailing out the rich.

From HMRC figures, in 1997 the best-paid 1 per cent of workers contributed 20 per cent of all income tax.
In 2007 it was 24.4 per cent.
In 2013-14 it is estimated to be 29.8%

The bottom 50% only pay 10% of all income tax.

If, yes. But the fact is the 1% now comprise mainly the wealth destroying bureaucrats who run large companies into the ground and pocket million dollars bonuses regardless of performance (Tesco anyone?) and bankers who run whole economies into the ground and get bailed out by taxpayers.
We already have a socialist economy - the poor bailed out the rich over 2007-2013 - would be only fair to reverse the process.

If, yes. But the fact is the 1% now comprise mainly the wealth destroying bureaucrats loafing around in publicly funded departments who ruin companies and pocket bonuses, knighthoods and elevation to the House of Lords regardless of performance.
