So that's all right. Meanwhile the ozone hole gets bigger and the planet is shot to hell.

"Free" education and "free" health service has never been free in the sense it doesn't cost money. But if there's something that everyone needs, why have a system where you get privileged access to it just because you've got more money? How come the more we have the less willing we are to pay for the things we need in common?

These still are "times of austerity" in reality - it's just that we've found ways of putting the burden on the poor of the world and on our children and our children's children, who are going to get by in a devastated planet, thanks to our selfishness.
