if not just to stave off the depravities of the fat ones on top of us.
Now you have rephrased it, it does sound better
initially you kinda said rich people were responsible to look after the poor, or thats how I read it.
the old are a problem ...the sick are a problem ...the demented are a problem ...the lazy ...and then we have the decision makers.
Sorry but economic disparities have existed for a long time. Would you say feudal times were equal??
Take my neighbours. I may be legally bound to respect their person and property but apart from that I have no obligations towards them!!!
Its no wonder you're seeing a shrink really.
To re-iterate there are few obligations in life!
man is a social animal. our young don't fall out of the womb and start to walk in a matter of hours or even weeks. we have to tend our young for years and years ...no other animal with this kind of comittment to it's off spring. we are naturaly caring ...it is carresed into our hearts and minds and then there are the problem people like you ...who missed out on this natural upbringing and never get over it ...
if i knew my next door neighbour was getting away with not paying tax, then I'd shop him in an instant.
Why should I pay, and not him?
why can't people mind their own fucking business and get on with their lives.
by grassing up your nieghbours for financial reasons your achieving what exactly?
i could never and would never be able to build a strong and lasting freindship with such small minded and untrustworthy people.
I'd hate to be you. You must really hate yourself.
Likewise I could never form a friendship with someone who refuses to contribute to this country and to the population's wellbeing.
By grassing people up, creates an example to the others who think they can get away with not paying their way.
If you don't want to pay taxes then leave school, don't use the NHS, don't even think about getting help from the police or the fire service and live in a caravan.
Like I said before, why should I pay when others refuse to? Why should I let them get away with it?
get real. we are not all coppers or employees of the government machine.
Of course we care. Compassion is in our nature.
That DIFFERS from being 'owed' something! When in history has a government been OBLIGATED to give its citizens food??! If everyone is owed food, why not go to Tesco and demand some? I don't work like that!;) Why can't a person be 'owed' a TV, DVD player or microwave oven??!
And material things aren't the only things a person cannot believe he is 'owed'. People aren't owed friendship for example; such a thing is earned.
you have lost the plot here with typical right wing madness.
your attitude about governments not owing the people anything is frightening! do you think the government own everything including you? believe it or not ...we the people are supposed to be the government in this wonderful democracy.
sadly ...'we the people' seem to be becoming ever more populated with people who cannot see beyond the end of their fucking noses/
don't you see how caring about your people ...your nieghbours ...your brothers and sisters, is beneficial to everyone ...including the fat men at the top?
by caring ...your actualy fulfilling a duty of generations of humans ...fulfilling that climb out of the slime. we couldn't have gotten this far without people looking out for each other.
we are currently in a serious and fucking seemingly endlessly dangerous situation on this planet ...and you want to get all fucking selfish!
since when? responsible to who?
In some cases the government has to act in the interests of the majority.
As for everyone paying some sort of tax, someone dodging their national insurance because they think by paying their 17.5% vat is doing their bit is sadly mistaken.
Like I said before, WHY should I pay a third of my wages in order to support the dosser living down the road, or the bloke claiming benefits but working on the side instead of reporting him for the lying cheating scumbag he really is?
go on ...someones going to say yes ...
To the country. Who else?
All those protestors who campaigned against the Iraq war did nothing to alter government policy.
your nieghbours financial dealings have bugger all to do with us!
let people get on with their lives please and let the state deal with it.
how many factories and farms ...sawmills and fishing jobs are cash out here in the hills ...employing thousands of people ...if you grassed everyone up ...wales would have to close ...probably ireland ...scotland ...yorkshire ...lancashire ...
we are not the keepers of the purse ...
...and what the anti war movement was against and what came to pass ...was exactly what the anti war movement said would.
those protests are effecting todays thinking and awareness ...they achieved plenty.
all the rough justice handed out in the streets to the poor hasn't changed a fucking jot ...since peelers day!
that's fucking very disturbibg ...
Where do you think the government makes up the shortfall? Thin air? Bollocks, the shrtfall comes from the pockets of the law abiding.
As for not getting help from the police, you can't just mix and match things from my post.
