July 9, 201511 yr Thank god nobody evades tax in the uk ....... Apart from Philip Green, Amazon, Starsucks .............. You quote a few slippery (solvent) businesses, I quoted an entire nation. Therein lies the difference...but I think you knew that already? The socialist utopia is crumbling,comrade.
July 9, 201511 yr It happens to be this socialist that has done more against corruption and tax evasion in the 5 months he's in power, than the previous LIBERAL-CONSERVATIVE government in years. For instance, the former government tried to keep the Lagarde List ( a list of potentially 2000 tax evaders) a secret and did nothing with it. This government is finally doing something about it.

July 10, 201511 yr Whether it's socialists or fascists or withers fault there are too many tax avoiders in the UK and it's you and me the ordinary tax payers covering their fat asses.
July 10, 201511 yr There by the grace of God goes I. Huge propaganda dished out towards Greece to win support for the rape of a Country and its people. Britain owes £1.6 trillion in debt, that debt is rising by £5 thousand pounds every second and we borrow over £10 million every hour of every day of the year, who are we to be so righteous.

July 10, 201511 yr Author the million dollar question is if everybody is in debt to everybody else and vice versa who the the hell isn't in debt in the first place its like a10+1 people all in a line all owing each other a tenner but the + 1 only has £2 so we start with him lend him £8 but in reality we only give him 10 pence the rest goes back to the other 9 people [the banks] and the vicious circle carrys on except next time we lend him 8 quid we take £7.90pence back plus his fcking telly couch and fridge[nationalised industries]. and so we carry on till we reach a point that joe muggins is sat in an empty house with SFA left to sell still wanting his £ 8 quid wigan take on financial ruin Edited July 10, 201511 yr by english electric
July 11, 201511 yr Money is created via debt so all money is debt, a never ending and growing policy only the Banks could have devised for self gain. Its like monetary musical chairs, when the music stops someone is left bankrupt because the system is designed this way and its Greece's turn today.
July 11, 201511 yr It now looks like the Greek PM has decided bending over and taking more for the next couple of decades is preferable to standing up to the Banks, I can see some major civil unrest tomorrow or in the week as he's now got a worse deal than before and has gone against the wishes of the 61%?

What was his alternative? - He has a country to feed and keep healthy. If he went back to the Drachma, it would take too long to implement and there would be a humanitarian disaster. Also talk of spending 'taxpayers' money is bollox. They will just print a load more just like they do in this country and every other one.. Fractional reserve banking at its best Edited July 11, 201511 yr by atomant

Fractional reserve banking at its best fractional reserve banking.JPG His alternative was to do what he was voted in for in the first place, all of our Politicans forget they serve us not themselves or others who wish to guide them, he will pay a heavy price next week and possibly have to resign. Iceland did just fine and it didn't take long either, there will be Drachma's printed and ready to go within a few hours and I expect there has been for some years now. Freeing themselves is the only way now, what they are about to do will ensure huge hardships for most in Greece as there is only one cure and they've yet again forgotten what it was. I watched a video this week of UKIP's Nigel Farage telling him in the Commission what he must do and why and you could tell by the look on his face he'd already been got at. I have no issues with fractional reserve as such as there are little alternatives, its the interest part of the system that makes everything rigged and ensures someone fails 100%
