Malt 379 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 life just comes a bit more easy when you`ve got a few quid and you don't have to struggle to pay your bills .. you cant beat hiding from the rent man,walking 7 mile to work and living off poached pheashants lamped rabbits and veg raided off the allotments to make you want to strive to do better when it comes to earning money.. That's the problem now mate, younger folk don't know what it's like to go to a food cupboard and find nothing in it apart from a few dusty tins of fruit hiding away in the corner that are about 2 years past their sell buy date! weds nights dinner cornflakes and warm milk thurs pay day ..... I can remember my mum stood by the door with her coat on ready to go to the shops as soon as my old man came home on pay days mate! Absolutely f**k all left in the house to eat!

Born Hunter 17,751 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Money isn't the root of all evil. People who don't love money live in a dream world. Everyone should want more and I can't understand why not. It's almost a given up attitude IMO. Want more but at what cost ? It has to be a system thats fair Whats not fair is your average Joe getting TAXED To fook while the Rich know all the loopholes and have the funds to employ solicitors/accountants ect to exploit them. Whilst Goverment turn a blind eye , Why ? You're right it should be fair........ flat rate of tax across the board. That would be fair imo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
