Which side of the fence are you on!

YapYapOK Alexa 755,640, slowly slowly, but still in the right direction. 

YapYapOK had a huge jump yesterday of nearly 40k places.  It means that we may be under 700k on sunday.  Clearly this is still a tall order but I reckon the odds are better than Labour staying  in power after may.

This in no way is indicative of my political preference.  i would rather abstain from revealing that.  It has changed from time to time and was at its strongest when William Hague was party leader for the conservatives.  I doubt that there was ever a more genuine or charismatic representative for any party in British politics.  I think  that he gave himself up for public service with the sole intent of putting the British people first.

The current issues surrounding the spending of public money with outlandish expenses, particularly with second homes, stinks of fraud.  What other career can you relocate and keep properties without paying for them.  Clearly expenses have been going on pre Labour and has been taken advantage of by nearly all politicians irrelevant of party politics.  It does however hit home more powerfully when this abuse stands in economically challenging times.  The benifits of the citizens of the UK are the politicians and those on benefits.

I strongly agree with a social system. Helping the socially disadvantaged is what makes us unique.  However when the balance is shifted so that it becomes a life choice to have the state provide then that must be indicative of poor distribution of funds. 

The problem with a poorly balanced mismanaged social system is that rarely those who are in need get the help they require.  Those who know how to strip the system fleece it.  Taxes need to be raised to pay for this.  Penalised tax payers often leave to pay there taxes in to country where they can enjoy fewer taxes.  Companies forced to pay minimum wages can no longer compete in the UK and before you know it the UK has no economy left.

Couple this with unions commanding higher pay and the destruction continues.  Companies are being held to ransom by unions which will no doubt see them sold off to foreign entities or worse folded.  If I owned Easy Jet, would I hire an ex British Airways employee.  Maybe I need some time to think about that.  How dare anyone have that power over any business, worse, how dare they use that power when they are fortunate to even hold a job in the current climate.  So more unemployment, more taxes to facilitate a higher social system and the self destruction continues, except of course for the politicains who continue to "rob" the little money left in the coffers.

Hmmm maybe I didn't hide my political leaning as much as I'd have liked.

So I have simplified my understanding of the system.  I know it to be far more complex.  Even so, the simple law of maths and balancing equations stands.  Less tax payers in supporting more in the social system equals debt.  By all means take some help when you needed,but work for it.  I bet less peolple would claim state benefit if they had menial work to do.  Have as many children as you want, but please, don't expect me to continue paying for it!!

YapYapOK is a free advertising website with no political preference.  It exists to provide a free resource to help you sell your stuff.  Since we do have a payment gateway we are not under any obligation to provide Alistair with details of any transactions, after all we dont know what your selling.  Businesses are obligated to declare tax to the Inland revenue as governed by UK tax law. 

Heavy, well some of my posts have been bland and lacking personality lately.  So I have stepped off  the fence and await the backlash.  Please be gentle with me.
