The rich are getting richer


Recommended Posts

What fallacy? He was telling the truth. The guy he's talking about was indeed driven out, and did indeed lose his career and livelihood.

 

That's why he had to go and make a new one, as a talking head, author and parliamentary candidate.

 

It was his livelihood & future that was claimed to have been lost.

 

Please read posts carefully before attempting corrections.

Jimmy Carr and his K2 tax scheme - so THAT'S how some of them are doing it ! Who would have thought it of saint Gary Barlow ?

 

Let's all keep digging , it's not just a case of sheep moaning that "the rich are getting richer" without doing anything about it , we need to wise up and start exposing more individual cases like this pro-actively .

 

Can anyone find out how much Clarkson gets in EU CAP subsidies for doing nowt , for starters ? That would be interesting ! This is where the Internet becomes truly useful ( for now anyway until we start to be monitored by G4S , sorry , the police ). Have a look at "farmersubsidies.org for a start , there might be something on there .

 

Can someone look at politicians's declared vested interests and do something to explore that ? We all need to find out "HOW THE RICH ARE GETTING RICHER " ............

because they are wealthy bankers , and we shouldn't even be remotely aware of their shortcomings , we are merely sheepies .

 

be deeply suspicious of any bank scandal that brings knowledge to "us sheepies" , surely we , as livestock , aren't supposed to know these things ?

Y'know, as someone who has not inconsiderable holdings in Synergy and AXA I could possibly be roused to get sort of possible excited in this.....

 

But it's late. Also most people fortunatly know that the wipes will be biodegradable.

 

For reference the US FTC tends to define biodegradability as breaking down to components found in nature with no toxic residues within a reasonably short period if time after consumers dispose if it in the normal fashion. A home compost heap would be a normal way, and a reasonable time for this would be a year.

Maybe it's late. I'm not in hibernation at this time of year, so time is largely irrelevant ... L2/L3 are causing problems, so I'm a bear with a sore butt (or just a bit higher.:sad:)

 

I've no problems with people who work hard being rewarded for their efforts, so if they happened to be rich beforehand and they work hard they will get even richer.

 

That may not be an acceptable socialist attitude (but then again, I'm not a socialist.) The working class were never required to kiss my arse, because I was never in the race for the foreman's job (

:hihi:;)

 

I didn't get around to considering Saunaman's argument - because he didn't get around to propounding one!

 

I don't give a damn how rich the rich get. I don't even know who the rich are.

 

Nor do I care.

So , 76 days since thread started , what has happened ?

 

G4S have shown their true level of incompetence at management level prior to the Olympics ( SO MORE LUCRATIVE CONTRACTS COMING THEIR WAY SOON THEN ?)

 

Bank corruption : LIBOR rigging , money laundering - so glad pulled out of HSBC and joined Co-Op , who gave £50k to Ed Ball's fund 31/3/12 -so ethical but not entirely impartial !

 

A4e falls off radar ( cover-up thanks to political mates ?)

 

Jimmy Carr and most of Take That revealed as tax dodgers

 

Spanish conglomerate Ferrovial now running Sheff's road improvements for the next 25 yrs ... no comment , look at Veolia ...

Interesting 76 days . Life is certainly interesting , let's see what the next 76 days bring !

Not a lot has happened except the government are still using the recession as an excuse to bully people.

Have you had a look at the Companies Competitition site lately ? Totally revamped , do they think we are stupid ?? Like I said , it was pathetic a few months ago , but someone's obviously been obliged to look into it and give it teeth , for purposes of making us all think that things are all under control and being regulated , they think we are are all sheep .... feel another post coming on ...

John Carpenter had it sussed back in 1988 ... 6/11/12 Shout!Factory will release a Collectors' Edition of the film "They Live" on DVD and Blu-Ray, a very 80's film but sure to become a classic as time goes on - 50 shades of reptile amongst us ?? Can't quite "get" the connection with "This Day LIve" , a strange Nigerian news channel, which recommends infiltration onto the board of a "highly respected consumer watchdog" (Which mag?)as UK equivalent ???
