o what do you want?
you dont want them taxing employers
you dont want them taxing the wealthy
maybe you want them taxing ordinary working people more
or maybe you want them just allowing public services to collapse
apparently you think helping people off NHS waiting lists and back into work is irrelevant to economic growth
What a pile of crap.
I expect prejudice and blinkers made you make that up. And it is made up, I didn't write any of it.
Doesn't lefty admin delete misquotes? And/or misquoters?
So you think its wrong to tax the wealthy more but here you are saying we should tax the wealthy more
More crap. Ditto.
Ditto
I just said it's already expensive and likely to become more so.
there is a correlation between countries with high levels of wealth inequality and low standards of living for the majority of citizens
Is it the inequality that bothers you, or the standards of the poor?
The standards of the poor people are paid for by the producers, who tend to be rich people (Unless they're as criminal as Trump) - get over it, it's the way the world works. If you disincentivise personal wealth creation, you're left with only poor people.
You can't have equality. Where are you going to cite - China? If so then you haven't spent any time there.
.yeah the billionaire owned Daily Mail and Telegraph never stop telling us that
From what I saw/heard somewhere, they were right. Billionaires have to have been right sometimes or they wouldn't be where they are.
So instead of a more considered approach, they've made those other billionaires leave. Mistake. I'm sure Rache will at some point be telling us how much has been gained,
nett. Or maybe just one side of the equation like politicians often do.

If you just attempt ( and fail) to paint a straw man from something you can't work out or imagine, and make things up so you make yourself look silly, you get nowhere.
That's what you just did.
The country doesn't have enough money, we probably agree. You presumably don't think being free of the corruption of the last government is going to make things OK by itself?
You come up with "so what do you want?".
I already made some suggestions. You have a reading problem as well?? What have you suggested? Nothing, but you can't see that counterproductive measures have been taken.
I already said tax - I probably (I don't have the figures,) would have put NI up 1% . I don't think generally that would have caused too much pushback - it's meant to be for the NHS. Under about £12kpa don't pay it iirc then the rate rises as you earn more. You can look at how many taxpayers were paying for one oldie when the NHS was started compared with now. It's massively worse. Something mad like 20:1 became 0.5:1.
I would have possibly put 1p on the 40% rate as well, and looked at the 45% rate. It could have been called "temporary" so people didn't put too much effort into finding ways to pay less tax. We know from history you have to be careful or the receipts go down if you raise the rates too much.
OK then what would you do? Wring your hands, blame the wrong people, and keep on spending money you don't have??
Do tell - we're all ears.
