  1. Yes there is a middle ground, you are right when you say useless workers exist, but it's just as easy to pay good workers well by cutting back on management/CEO types salaries/ bonuses as well as weeding out blagging on the tools types
  2. Good for you, your a hero
  3. Your right Egg, people seem quite happy to see other people get shafted by big business, but if you try and stand up for your and others rights your a leftie throwback, our society now has changed out of all recognition, people are more concerned about the Kardashians than the people going to food banks in their towns

  5. Might be a bit harsh there, IMO he was fully aware of the real world but had a set of ideals which were never going to fit in it ( sadly some might say). He was a man if strong convictions, moral duty and charisma, something lacking in politics today ( just look at Michael gove!). Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
