You could say so much in response to that 'sentence' couldn't you
but it would take the thread madly off topic.
Britain is a ****hole with a **** poor standard of living relatively and both companies, government and other citizens queueing up to rip you off to be honest. In between being ripped off by the Govt in terms of ridiculously high taxation and private companies charging over the odds we're in trouble.
BUT a lot of the reason for this apparent overcharging is things such a bureaucracy, wage levels needing to be relatively high to support our prodigious tax bills, poor productivity, etc, etc with some simple profiteering.
It's not as simple as just saying that companies simply rip us off. If that were the case someone would undercut them all.
We pay what we have to pay sadly. Blame companies, regulators, government, the unemployed, the unions, etc, etc.
