Re: What do we think of the UK?

Sorry I havent had time to read the thread but my view is that the UK is too capitalist and there are some very rich people who I feel should be paying more in tax, not enough done to close tax loopholes etc. Their are people caight up in whats called social exclusion who will get very little help as it isnt politically correct and too much power to corporations. Also too many companies owned by shareholders so always only looking at short term gains.

The result of all this chaos is that proper health care is only recieved by those who can afford to go private, the best jobs go to those from priveledged backgrounds, the poor pay a higher proportion of their income in tax and the socially excluded dont get heard.
