I have a fairer take on taxation I've been working on that I shall inflict share with you all...
I'm a radical collectivist in that I believe people are inherently local collectivists. You look after Number One, then your family, then friends, neighbours, town... distribution of resources that radiates outwards. The people in your inner circle receive the most and maybe the people on the outside receive some of what's left.
This natural inclination to collectivism has been twisted into a centralised, authoritarian perversion. In the words of comedian Steve Hughes: "...don't associate yourself with people less fortunate than yourself who have to live on the street or have no money. Don't help them out by having a conversation or by giving them a few coins. Don't do that. Why don't you just... uh... send the money to us and... err... we'll make sure they get it."
With this in mind, I believe people would get behind taxation if it was just 10% of their income (a tithe) given directly to the parish or town to manage local services. Of the monies the parish collected, 10% would be given to the county. Of the monies the counties collect, 10% would be given to central government.
What should or shouldn't be done with such a meagre amount of money would be radically refocused. Probably all central government could do is maintain a military for defence and little else. People would send their kids to a local school and attend local health services. No more of these grandiose centralised monstrosities we have inflicted on us. ____________________ Royal Enfield Continental GT 535, Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Those hard working imports in case anyone was wondering...
- people from the combined Bangladeshi and Pakistani (9%), Asian ‘other’ (7%) and black (7%) ethnic groups had the highest unemployment rates out of all ethnic groups
- Yorkshire and the Humber had the highest unemployment rates for people from the mixed (15%), ‘other’ (15%), and combined Pakistani and Bangladeshi (12%) ethnic groups
- white people had the lowest unemployment rates out of all ethnic groups (3%)
...wait I thought we were the ones too lazy to work?  |

Fcuks sake, not this twaddle all over again.
There's risks with every drug. Some of the ones I take have weird side effects (no, not two tails but... ). This was medical science being pushed far and fast. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |
