Default Re: Poll Tax

I always wondered that myself, I dont know enough about it so this could be interesting.

As far as I can see...everyone just paid an equal amount each? nobody paid more and nobody paid less?

Or have I misunderstood it entirely.

For me and kerry we live in a 4 bed house. So we pay way above average for council tax.

Yet we use bugger all and are lucky if our bins go out once a month let alone every two weeks.

I guess there was alot more big families back in the day, so had to pay alot, where as nowdays with not so many people having large families due to the cost poll tax would be better for most.
