What makes you any better than anyone else that has to suffer in a poor job to pay bills while they look elsewhere for work? Do you spend your days off M-F 9-5 considering options for work i wonder?

I reckon that if tax was cut by half, meaning all the money the government takes each year, that little would change in terms of public services. They'd no longer be able to pretend that thousands of civil servants weren't completely useless and did nothing to serve the public and would be sacked. They wouldn't be able to waste billions on a one off sporting event in the **** end of London, and so on.
Money gets spent most efficiently when you don't have much of it.
Therefore, I feel that the utter raping my pay cheque gets every month, and subsequently when ever I buy anything there after is an outrage. I'd guess Blue feels the same. He's been presented with an opportunity to get some of that money back, and I can't honestly see why anyone would object to this.
In fact, if everyone did it, then perhaps the government would have to rethink handing benefits out like confetti.
