Just read that Gary Coleman has died. The child stars of Diff'rent Strokes haven't fared so well.
Whach you talkin' about DaButt?
What you talkin' 'bout Mr D?
RIP
Probable contents of his bedroom. One Playstation console. Lots of games of world domination on CDs. One computer. Evidence of many hours spent playing world domination games online. Set of dumb-bells. Rambo poster on wall. Wads of hardened tissue paper strewn on floor. Waste paper basket filled with angrily scrunched up sketches and ideas for serial killer names. Unspeakably crusty and smelly bed sheets. Post-it note pinned with hunting knife to back of door reminding self to murder prostitute tomorrow.
Government ministers refuse to appear on Question Time. Government minister in expenses scandal. Prime Minister reacting in knee-jerk way to every event that happens...
It's exactly the same as before. Nothing's changed. Except now we've got added cuts.

Cuts that are essential, I'd imagine. Nations can't continue to spend more money than they have. To do so is reckless and irresponsible.
Or they can concentrate more of those resources centrally by raising taxes?
I've yet to see a government balance a budget by increasing taxes. They'll take the tax money and spend even more.
Why is the tax rate so much higher than in the past? It's a percentage and not a flat dollar/pound figure, so shouldn't it remain the same even as inflation or earnings increase?
Money is only a reflection of value.

What does that even mean? A tax rate/percentage is not linked to value or money.
It means he's scared of admitting that Governments are the worst people to be allowed to spend money.
