Quick straw poll - the welfare £26K cap - good or bad?

She doesn't get the cash.  The landlord does. 

 
Wrong, wrong, wrong. I am a landlord.

So you have all my tax money!  :eek  The bulk of the cash is intended for the Landlord.  How it gets there, or doesn't, I never commented on.

But what we have is tax payers forking out for inflated rents paid to people with money invested in property.  This all comes back to Maggie selling off the council stock, the privatisation of the welfare state.

Meanwhile non of you care or want to do anything about the big money, the 100's billions pounds evey year that rich people avoid in taxation every single year.  The kind of money that can get this country out of the mess that's it 's in.

And here's another thought for you all.  There was a nice picture of Crazy Dave Cameron at Asda's head quarters in my paper today surrounded by Asda staff.  Apparently Asda is spending 500 million on an expansion programme and creating 6000 jobs.  Great news what?  Now I'm wondering what this expansion is, but assuming it's within their usual retail business model, well that means 6000 low paid jobs, just above the minimum wage but below the living wage.  Therefore it's another 6000 jobs that the tax payer will have to subsidise with welfare payments.
Why the hell do we continue to put up with subsidising the wage bill of stinking rich national and international companies?    Is it not about time people in full time employment were paid a living wage, particularly when they are employed by a multi million/billion pound business. 
The whole system is fucked, and nobody has any intention of doing anything about it. 

Delboys manifesto.........

And yes one government policy for pulling the wool over our eyes is to run the agenda.  Favourites are welfare, immigration, human rights, anything that with the help of the rich press barons will keep us from wising up to how the economy really works, and who it works for.  Divide and rule.

In the "bad" old days, if you had a child outside of marriage or an unexpected pregnancy it was socially frowned upon and the mother and child had to live with the parents and make do............................. = deterrent

In the bad old days girls that got pregnant outside of marriage were considered to be mentally ill, after the child was taken from them at birth they were then placed in mental asylums were many remained for the rest of their lives.
