  What an idiot this Kwasi Kwarteng is, or what fools he thinks we are.
  
  Our current sorry state was not caused by either employees or employers. (in the main) We cannot hope to get out of our present sorry state by seeking answers from those to whom no questions were ever put.
  We are where we are because of the sublime disconnection between work and reward. To place all focus on the 'pennies' while the Pounds remain out of sight and out of mind is ludicrous.
  Rather than fiddle with PAYE at the bottom, an obligation to PAYE should be imposed across the board.
  High tax rates are not why tax is avoided. Tax is avoided therefore there are high tax rates.
  Bi££ions are lost to our economy because tax-exaction is more of a game than an obligation. The buttering-up of the majority, those on low(ish) wages, with the 'threat' to take them out of the tax-loop is shameful.
  
  "No taxation without representation/No representation without taxation." [Either way.]
  
  Our problems and our solutions lie in the simple fact that those in the UK who MUST pay tax obtain scant representation while those who avoid as much tax as they are permitted/encouraged to do, (and are able to engineer through their overwhelming representation) have the ear of, and a grip upon the short-hairs of, Government.
  
  This KK fellow is just another of the middle-management types that have plagued our political system for decades. A 'VP' in charge of BULL!! Looking after his own career prospects while assuming our general acceptance of blame and responsibility for a mess not of our making.
