Do you want a bet?

I fancy we may have different definitions of "good" and "bad" when it comes to socio-economic and socio-political societal models.
I'm fond of fair and equitable taxation, direct taxation, with investment in key public services and regulation of "the markets".

I'd guess you're fond of reactionary, populist tabloid headlines?

Or a meringue?

Some argue though that the State is already bloated and unproductive and that increases in taxation often result in reduced tax receipts. I’m inclined to the view that the Public Sector is often inefficient and that it generally doesn’t offer the taxpayer value for money … walk into any Council office or, dare I say it, the NHS and observe, critically, just how many front-line staff there are doing absolutely ***** all!
