Wealthy

[Returnofrros]

Left wing politicians always talk about taxing the wealthy but rarely define what wealthy is.......wealthy to Joe public always seems to be someone with a bit more money than them.......nobody ever seems to think they are wealthy.

Is someone earning 75k a year more wealthy than someone with half a mill in savings.

Is a high rate tax public sector worker with ALL the benefits their perks wealthy.

Is a junkie time wealthy

Is someone living in a band G house wealthy or a guid saver and frugile.

What is wealthy........always seems to be some other bugger.

Helping the poor seems to me to be more about creating low paid jobs for people to look after the poor and in some way keep them poor and dependent. We seem to have given up on hard work as being necessary to survive.

Being able to look after yourself seems to be impossible and in some way selfish.

Yeah agree with that, labour used to be about pulling folk up, seems to me they are about pushing more down now.

The same left wing politicians will be reasonably well off despite not admitting it.
The leaders of the big unions are all well paid.
