Yes and no.\n\nWe "care" far too much for some of the wrong places and far too little for the right ones.

I agree. Get rid of the royal family. They are no use to no-one. Not to workers or capitalists. It should be the one and only thing in witch  both of you would unite in.\nIt really amazes, how the english peolple accepts some dozen of human beings just party with style and luxury all their lives from birth to grave, and all is payed from taxes. A dream life for nothing.

I do.\n\nThis Tory government is nearly as bad as the last one.

Its impossible to send them all back,this is self evident. \nThe rich are getting richer employing illegals. The rich are the ones who contribute to the politicians,so I hope you see this circle.\nMost of our families ancestors came here legally,did the right thing,worked,respected the laws.payed taxes,and in time became citizens.\nWhat we have now ,and not all mind you, are millions not paying taxes,overburdoning our school systems,draining our heath care systems.I have to pay to send my kids to school,ie,, taxes. I have to pay to visit the emergency room if needed. Free clinics I avoid. I know someone who works at the local free clinic,they told me 99% of the people that go there are illegal. They do not use birth control,most have an S.T.D. This in turn is spreading desease throughout our country,increasing the illegal population as a whole.\n I see the protests and demonstrations all over the news. Like it or not,they are trying to take over our country,that is a fact,even waving flags saying, "This is our continent".\nThe government has done nothing for too long,I am afraid it is too late to control.\nOur society is too busy just trying to live day to day to get involved and push the government into real action. The ones who do get involved are just a notch above vigilantes.\nIt bothers me to say it,but I really see nothing short of all American citezens revolting against the government to get something happening.\nOur country is changing,fast,those in charge are selling,and in some cases giving our country away.\nIf you dont believe me,look at the port situation.

Well dear - the Americans do rather better than the British on this one.  Not only do they get paid more - but when they are serving in Iraq, they do not pay income tax - now that should really get you mad!  But I'm afraid that it has always been so - remember the saying 'over-sexed over-paid and over here'\n\nBut this is the problem with the British Government - they want to have a £1000 000 soldier but only pay him peanuts\n\n\nSorry below - there is not legislation at present that permits the waiver of income tax for British forces.\n\nTo J MAN:\nof course it's not a bragging right I was mearly quoting the saying and for your information I am English, lived through the war and served in occupied France with SOE - so I do know what I am talking about dear.

I agree with the concept of your complaint. However, there are many celebs that do donate a decent amount of money (it is a tax benefit to do so, so of course they do!). Many even have their own foundations. \n\nHowever, you are correct in that they tell us to conserve, use less, donate, etc etc and then jet around in private jets, Hummers, air condition 12,000 square foot homes, have yachts and fleets of cars, and the sordid list goes on. That is what I find to be even worse. Conservation is fine for the peons, but certainly not for the demi-god celebs!

No and I don't think the English are doing all that well. Last I checked they had to pay people to procreate because there population is falling away to nothing. "They clearly don't know what they are doing" heh it's a good thing we don't have one know it all running the country.

Yes yes yes, we should lte more people in- more specifically, more skilled workers and high talent people. That will stimulate the economy. More people earning more = more taxes collected = less taxes paid by each individual & better social system = happier everybody.\n\nA friend from high school's family had her immigration request refused- she is and incredibly talented scholar and concert pianist, and her parents are both doctors, and she has about six close relatives with olympic medals...\n\nC'mon, Australia, what is going on THERE?!

They might accept charity but it's likely that it will come from the hard working poor people and middle class. It's all these Liberal Democrats who got us into this mess to began with. They are the ones that should have to pay!

I know you mean council tax, anyhow the lady in question was wrong not to pay her bill. I agree that carting someone off to jail for a minor offence is abominable when paedophiles are being set free.If only more people complained in this country, look at France, they have a riot every time the government there cocks up!It's time we stopped adopting the "stiff upper lip" attitude and started to show the politicians who their bosses are, us the taxpayer!

Its true, the government panders to big business. When I was a student the loans for tuition just piled up and now we have to pay it all back. \n\nThere is money for a war in Iraq. And money for a war in Afghanistan. These people have not really upset us. I think we have the wrong government. They should be voted out. \n\nWe should not have to get young people starting out to start with thousands of pounds of debts while we spend billions of pounds on a war in a country that has nothing to do with us. \n\nIf America has problems with people let them sort it out themselves, we are not rich enough for that sort of adventure.

Yes and you raise a good point. This used to be a land for everyone to come to. Now it is a country of a waiting list and no more room for the less fortunate.

Have you been standing out in the free cheese line in the hot sun for too long?\n\nHey, believe it or not, the rich people DO pay lots of other people's taxes for them!  But it's the middle class that gets the short end of the stick.  The rest of your ramblings sound rather socialistic.  Are you insinuating liberals are emulating socialists?  I never, in a million years, would have thought THAT (pause for heavy sarcastic sigh).

I totally agree!\n\nWhy are we letting people in to this country to just sponge off the welfare, cause trouble and get freebies!\n\nI think that people from other countries should be welcomed if they bring something to the country... i.e JOBS! \n\nHow many unemployed people are in this country? How many single mums are ignored for the fact that illegal immigrants get their first pics! it is disgraceful!

Utopia, third right past the end of the rainbow.\n\nYou've missed out why we pay taxes. Apart from keeping some idle people wealthy they pay for education, health, housing roads, et al.\n\nThe weather, we can do nothing about, Politics can be changed by voting, yes actually voting.\n\nI'm not bothered whether a person is blue, green or pink and purple stripe, I don't care if a person worships a gold bar or a house brick. He will seek the correct direction at some time.\n\nI think that we British are probably not very happy because we are a constant target with criticism by insiders and outsides. We have a Press that can only print bad news.\n\nWe have a Civil Service (centrally), that is at best inept, and at its worst criminally negligent.\n\nHowever elsewhere it is probably crooked.\n\nI think that if we adopted the policy of 'if you don't like us GO!' Even if a persons lineage goes back generations to Dick Turpin, still GO and the sooner the better, because that person will find that they are carrying bad baggage with them.\n\nTake another look at Britain, walk around it, talk to strangers in other areas.\n\nYou will find that it is the best place on Earth.
