Barry, but surely one point remains to be clarified.
Why do some people get no bonus, for example millions of people who do not decide where big money is invested, and other people get say a 5% or 10% bonus in respect of their annual income, and yet other people - usually if not always on a top wage, get a 300-400% bonus?
I thought that if a top banker or chief executive earned £300,000 a year, that in itself was sufficient compensation for their work.
Why can't their bonus be £30,000 a year? Why does it have to be £1 million?
How can one justify - rightly or wrongly - that public sector workers should get less pensions, or other people should not receive child benefits for their children, but at the same time justify that a top earner on hundreds of thousands a year should receive a £1 million bonus EVERY YEAR?
Is this not a slap round the face to us working people who struggle, and are told every day that we can expect more and more spending cuts, and more hardships to come?
My question is, is a £30,000 yearly bonus on a £300,000 annual salary not good enough? That would be a 10% reward.
It is obvious to see that these people on massive 300% bonuses amounting to a £million each year consider themselves more important than us, better than us, and consider us as inferior.
They show disdain towards us. Yes they despise us.
And they do not hesitate to home-evict the unfortunate family that could not meet up with debt repayments.
They show no human compassion, and unlike Scrooge, who also slept with his golden ducats under the pillow, are not moved to compassion either.
And no, they won't go and give their money away to the poor, as Scrooge did, when he saw what people thought of him.
They know what we think of them, and how much more we will think of them as they continue to line their pockets while we languish in despair.
