After the viruse
« on: 29 March 2020, 11:14:47 »

When this is all over, there's a lot of money HMG, are going to want back.. I can see, fuel duty, income tax, beer n fags, and lots of in-direct taxation going up. Lots of tax fiddles will be closed.. It's going to hurt, be working till we're 70+.  That'll start the millennial, snowflakes a moaning, as they hate working fullstop.

Think thats a certainty given the money being thrown around.Can see tax at maybe 25% and big hike in National Insurance Contributions too.

Being Self Employed does mean a lump sum in June but that will,be classed as an earnings on 2020 income so will also be taxed so its given with 1 hand and taken back with both .Not complaining as many are in a worse state though just worrying times for the foreseable future .

I think a global boycott of Chinese goods might be a good idea once the dust is settled. They have royally fcucked the global economy, not to mention the thousands of deaths and sickness caused due to them behaving like wealthy savages.

I agree totally although so much of our economy is based on Chinese goods that cant see that happening.

Still convinced this is part of some larger sinister man made plot though

It's all relative, of course.

No money can cause it's own problems of worry, anxiety, and depression.

Too much money seems to create the same problems.... plus becoming paranoid. I'm somewhere in the middle which is why I am the happy well-balanced individual who brings such joy to this forum..... ::) ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D

I am considering offering 20% pay cut just to keep my job... 12 people into four jobs does not go, and a cut in my pay would cover the company redundancy cost...

Money makes you more of what you already are... If you're of a philanthropic nature, then you become more so... If you're an asshole, you become more so.

Probably a pretty accurate assessment.

There are plenty of extremely unhappy people who happen to be extremely wealthy.......and plenty of people who don't have a pot to piss in who seem inordinately happy.

Donald Trump doesn't seem to smile much. :)

Just as it was after WW2 when the Americans bailed us out financially, I can see them taking advantage of what will be our weak financial situation to work the post-Brexit trade deals, that will become a priority again, in their favour. :(

Or perhaps we should at last just become the 51st State of the USA!! ::) ::) ;D ;D ;)

If Trump continues to be as deluded, they might end up worse off than us. :(
