Summations Only

My dear Old Stoney Face the error you are making here is viewing the world through your lense of ultra Marxist socialistic/communism of the British loony left wing ideology currently promolgated by the loony Torys.Like you I've been cursed with an upbringing that views other people as generally good sorts who I would be happy to give a bit of my hard earned wages to if it would lift their family out of poverty. The various happenstances, flukes, accidents of birth and circumstance that led me to have a good education and a decent job which I enjoy were actually down to my own work ethic: proof that if you are not successful it is because one is a feckless, lazy scrounger who wants to destroy the nation.The grant I had at uni given to me by the government had nothing to do with it, nor the money my folks gave to me or the friends I made at uni helping me find a place to live. I don't count that as anything other than my own hard work.You need to purge you self of this foolish notion that you should help anyone simply because it's a good thing to do.What the Torys should really do is gut all the publicly ran institutions and open it up to the beneficent power of market forces. Then the institutions would be well run morally vituous concerns putting profit first to the benefit of all. Then the country would be in a better state, more jobs, happy people and a growing economy all down to market forces.Oh, wait.....Sad face.
