Title: The madness of 'king George...
Post by: Banjax on 06 April 2011, 09:30:32
...will become apparent to millions upon millions of households from today, I think George O actually believes putting up taxes nets more money, well not if thousands lose their jobs and the very rich avoid taxes anyway so its lovely that you're so keen on reducing the deficit George but this experiment of yours and the governments will be ruinous - you have little or no idea how people live, to be fair - how could you? This is when the cuts become apparent, this is when the loss of public sector services will bite - a massive amount of private companies and hence employees rely on government contracts that are drying up, how does that grow an economy?

You're mad, you've never held a real job, you have no clue about how the world works and your cuts callously expose you as being devoid of any empathy - you literally think that £100k a year solicitors are the bottom rung of society  :o

And we let this ineffectual hooray-henry toff tell people "we're in this together"

Nutjob.

Trouble is, as heir to a multi billion fortune.....i doubt you care  :o

Without wanting to appear too philosophical, there are just too many changes happening at the moment. This government is changing the face of society in our country very quickly, while events in the wider world are moving equally fast.
I try to console myself with the fact that older people, such as me, have always tried to cling to the present and reject change. But, I feel, this is more than that.
I don't like it. I don't like it at all. :(

Now that, to me, is quite sobering.  I was thinking along the same lines before composing a reply.

I must agree with you Steve, and would add that these financial cuts may well be the least of our problems in the short term.

There's something not quite right with the world at the moment (more especially within society in this country) - it’s difficult to identify precisely but it's there nonetheless.

I think we need to take heart, Den, from the fact that fact that such events have happened in the past. In fact, much larger events, albeit at a much slower pace.
When I look at the young, confident folk around me, going about their business, I sometimes think that I have access to too much information and have too much time on my hands. ;D

Cheer up, Buddy. :y

Good business practice in turbulent times to have so much change going on that no one knows what is actually happening. When it goes belly up then you just put your hands up and say "if it hadn't been for poor growth, fall in the euro, massive inflation, Royal Wedding etc" everything would have been alright. :y

Indeed Steve, you have hit it right on the head! :y :y :y :y

Over the almost 2000 years since the Romans landed Britannia has found herself suffering from many crisis and a changing political situation, along with social changes of immense magnitude.  Some of those changes happened slowly and calmly, others very quickly indeed with a dramatic impact of the life of the English (and Scots along with the Welsh).

However it is only in "modern" history that events unfold before our media savy eyes, and now on almost an hourly basis.  We KNOW now what is happening, how bad or good something is, and how much it is going to affect us in Britain.  Modern media communications are a wonderful thing, but now we, the people, know so much almost instantly that my generation in my childhood, and the generations before, would not recognise!

Today things are never as bad as they seem on a national, general basis, but they just seem that way.

Just imagine waking up in 1348 and watching everyone around you dying of the plague.  Then imagine the unbelievable fear of a Spanish invasion in 1588, probably on a par with the fears of 1940.  Then think of suddenly being hit by very high, previously unknown, taxes between 1793 and 1815 to pay for the French wars with Napoleon, when 58% of all taxes went towards funding the war.   Then you have the food shortages throughout the late 1700s into the early 1800s...................the horrors of WW1 and WW2............the power cuts and fuel shortages of 1973/4................, I could go on but you see nothing is as bad now as it was. 

Just think the real King George III lost the Americas in 1776, something I don't think our George Osbourne can lose!! :D :D :D ;)
