More travails of taxpayer Joe

Too many things to be angry about today I don't know where to start... Well I've already ranted about how almost everything this government have done so far has been an attack on the poor, http://musingsfromaneet.blogspot.com/2011/12/goodbye-2011-beginning-of-my-life-but.html and another week just brings another initiative to make the poor; poorer. Capping benefits. It was only due to the Lords that child benefit is excluded from this cap.

But, wait hold up?!! This would not just be a win for the right-wing, it's a win for the taxpayer Joe who wakes up, goes to work, pays his taxes, pays the bills, comes home, kisses his wife and kids goodnight, sleeps and does the same shit the very next day.

I'm not that much of a deluded left-winger that I cannot see when something is just plain wrong,  OF COURSE  no-one should be paying their taxes in order for some others to not do much more than sit on their backsides and occasionally get up to reproduce more little no hopers just like them. OF COURSE  it gets me mad when I see that grown arse men who probably have wives and children cannot possibly get a job, but you can make damn well sure they can make it to the bookies for 9am. OF COURSE it gets me mad that the local drug dealer has the same house as my parents whilst paying at least 5 times less than they do, whilst driving around in 11 plate cars. OF COURSE it gets me mad that my grandma had no choice but to get married at the age of 15 and take on three stepdaughters, yet the girls in my school had every choice but chose to accidentally on purpose get up the duff because they have no further ambition than a council house and benefits. OF COURSE there is something wrong with a society that has everything but chooses to achieve nothing.

But wait again! Does capping benefits make Joe's life any better? Will he sleep any better? Does he get any richer? Will living costs go down and employment go up? If all the poor lived in shanty towns like Cameron would like, would Britain still be 'Great'? Will the government also aggressively recoup more money from the rich people we bailed out? What about the multi-million pound corporations that pay less tax than Joe does? If benefits do get capped will Joe receive a tax rebate? Because you know, we're all in this together?

Hell to the NO!

Wake up and get your priorities straight or we'll end up under a government like the French, who debate Burkhas and whether or not to define certain genocides a genocide, when their economy is crumbling and the people are suffering. But don't worry, making Vicky Pollard receive less benefits will give us a FAIRER SOCIETY. Can't wait.
