Is the UK going into mass decline?

RE: well said that man

I didn't know that so I stand corrected on that point, thank you sir...

:-|

However, I don't think it'd take me so long to find another, similar instance where the workers weren't so lucky...

 

What do you suggest?

Do you think the Government should run everything?

 

RE: well said that man

To be honest, I don't know exactly but what I do know is that this Labour government is continuing with dogmatic policies similar to the ones that got us into some of the mess we're in at the moment.

Let's see some more council housing, let's see some attempt to withdraw from Iraq that wouldn't leave a massive civil war in the vacuum created, let's stop pumping money into PFI schemes of questionable value run by questionable people, let's close the loopholes to prevent billionaires from not paying tax and, possibly more important, let's stop kids being dazzled by consumerism and the mentality that fame and fortune is the object and any means to attain that object is justified by the ends.

Let's start respecting and valuing the people who actually contribute to society as opposed to those who just get rich of it's back...

That'd be a start...

RE: Im no economist but

here in norway there is 100 000 unemployed. stilll the government and parliament says there is to little workers, so we have to import workers. off course what they don´t say but everyone knows is that imported labor get less wage than a norwegian. MUCH LESS. so the only reason for importing labor is cheap labor. this to push the wage bill for the capitalist down.
