This is all about helping the poor and it is all about increasing the tax-take from the better off.
Increase the tax take through lower simpler and flat taxes.
Help the poor by creating real prosperity the only way it can, from profitable business providing new jobs from a sustainable economy.
Your way Keith of high taxes, high government spending, intervention and benefits has failed - it damages the means to create the wealth it needs to be sustained and drives us into an economic crisis.
I am amazed that some people cannot see what is in front of their face. It is not rocket science but it does need a lot of people on the left to drop their prejudice and short-sighted ideology.
