Not nonsense Roger
Anyway back at the thread title
today on the news it was announced the top earners average earners 14% pay rises
whilst those at the bottom in these companies having to tighten there belts, many with no pay rises for many years.
This is what gets up the noses of those struggling to survive.
In Switzerland an attempt has been made to limit these high wages to 12 times that of the lowest paid
would work out over £200,000 not a bad earner
but it appears this will be rejected by big business, which means a few at the top will continue to get richer
and although theres an argument for this
its also about sharing these profits with those at the bottiom who would have helped these companies make profits.
Also its questionable that although the country feels there needs to be a fairer system, a few at the top can threaten to pull out

I rarely look into this farce of a thread but I see this morning that it is as dumb and delusional as always. The left wing head-bangers still cannot face up to the facts of Brown's profligate spending from 2000.

Fairness - rubbish. The only fair thing is to get the economy right simply because everything depends on that but you, of course, like all 'lefties' really only care about government spending and give no though to how that wealth is created or the way your spending cripples the ability of the economy to create wealth.l

That is the problem Bob

more and more will will diassociate themselves from politicians

Keith - that is typical left wing clap-trap.
The richer do not get rich at the expense of the poor. The poor benefit from the jobs and aspirations of the rich through investment and spending.
The best way to help the poor is through a more prosperous and competitive economy and, in fact, ultimately that is the only way the poor can be helped with the opportunities that are derived from that with, of course, the right education to help them take advantage of those opportunities.
It is such myths as you propagate there that close down the opportunities for the poor to better themselves. You 'lefties' really are the biggest enemy the poor and vulnerable have.
