Taxes fair???    Have you all been asleep for the last year?

The rich made even more money by de-regulating the banking system, aided and abetted by a democratically elected govt which needed "growth" to finance war, militarism, and defend itself from enemies made by its own foreign policies.

When that house of cards collapsed, who's money put it back together again....thats right the taxpayers!

Isn't it nice to know that your hard earned dollars and pounds are not going to wasteful projects like new hospitals or education, of drug treatments that work, or care for the elderly, or... or...

Isn't it nice to know that your hard earned dollars and pounds are being used to reset a system which has failed miserably and will continue to fail, because that system is not in place for the benefit of Jane or Joe Public, but for the rich who put it in place to begin with.

Our job is to keep on picking up the pieces and putting them back together.
