Mercurian Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I blame Thatcher. She started a snowball rolling many years ago. It was the snowball of greed, self interest, class distinction and inhumanity. We are now getting caught up in the resulting avalanche. But the rich will still be ok, they may even get richer through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 What comes after trillions …. We have run out of millions, then billions so what comes after trillions? Don't worry we won't run out of numbers. Million: 1,000,000 Billion: 1,000,000,000 Trillion: 1,000,000,000,000 Quintillion: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 Sextillion: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Nonillion: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Centillion: 1 followed by 303 zeros The country has not existed for a trillion seconds. Western civilization has not been around a trillion seconds. One trillion seconds ago – 31,688 years – Neanderthals stalked the plains of Europe.

green Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Capello has gone along with his £6 millon salary, or I am I getting confused by rhyming slang. Theres a difference between Capello salary and a bankers. Capello is scrutinised by either media outlet and football pundit in the country. If he were a Premiership manager, every player (deal) he made it would be poured over by most of the country. If the player under performs and he sells him, every one knows the deficit. Bankers, do deals we know nowt about. They trade in our commodities, they rape our pensions. Whether the deals are good or bad, they are not known by us. Their accountants find ingenius ways to stop us from knowing through their 500+ tax haven accounts. If the deals fail, we the tax payer pick up the loss.

They were a bunch of chancers who masqueraded as labour and carried on tory policies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 They were not real labour. They were a bunch of chancers who masqueraded as labour and carried on tory policies. They were backed, paid by and campaigned by Labour. New, Old, Indifferent or Useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
