Very blinkered, sad and embittered view,

Firstly Fox Hunting does improve peoples lives as it gives them enjoyment, whioch is one of the most important commodities in living.

A life without enjoyment is a sad and empty life.

Now doubt you feel the same way about:

Dance instructors
Actors
Comedians
Artists
Atheletes
Footballers (all sportsmen in general)
etc,etc,etc

Let alone all the people that workm in the countrys various service industries.

This is the issue though.

The peoples interests weren't taken into account.

The government for their own reasons wanted to ban fox hunting, I don't think the vast majority of people in the country cared.
