The people that make these decisions are on 100s of thousands of pound a year,
Well if you take our new PM, or most of his cabinet ministers, what they earn at work is peanuts – their income comes from investment. I don’t think people realise how rich many of these people are.
Also what luxuries can people afford on the minimum wage, or worse still a zero hours contract? Maybe 10 or 20 fags a day is in reality, as extortionate as they are, still an affordable luxury.
And of course, the millions on the minimum wage are often working for companies that don’t pay their corporation tax. On top of that, they claim tax credits etc in order to survive. So, I effectively get taxed to provide the tax credits in order to subsidise the mega companies that don’t pay tax or even pay their employees a living wage.
But hey I’m just a typical left champagne socialist liberal elite wanker. Oh and politics is banned on this site.
