The other focus of the protest seems to be 'class war'. When did everyone start to care so much about 'the poor'? When they had someone to blame for it rather than actually doing something to help, that's when. Makes me grateful for the Facebook friends who are poor and just get on with it even if they are on the dole. When I was about 16 I think, seemed unfair that some people worked hard all their life and got next to nothing in return. Did you ever take a step back and look at why you weren't one of them? If you've got a nice car they'll try to smash it but blame everyone else for being poor. Have any of these idiots ever looked up to anyone who's done well? Even the likes of Lord Sugar are scum to them. I saw some 2-bob comedian's quote suggesting that doleites contribute the most because all their money goes towards the tax on fags and booze. Overall the message stinks and says "why bother?". Edited by johnfirewall (08 Nov 2015 2.11pm) I think the comedian in question was making a point that they ended up paying more tax than Amazon did, it was a joke. Tell that to the idiots lapping it up. Still the same message as you get in the average Guardian article anyway which does nothing to help the less well-off when the focus is constantly on those who've earnt money who supposedly should be giving it to them. Tax avoidance is a fair but easy target.
