Despite working in the City, a friend said that I was a socialist at heart. Made me laugh, Me who loves turning left on boarding a flight?
So I have paid taxes like a good boy for about 13 years. Never took much from the state since I started work. Most City institutions include Medical benefits, gym memberships etc.
I figure Taxation exists for the greater good of society for a number of reasons - schools, hospitals, and so on. Above all, something that sets us apart from the 3rd world is provision of benefits. For the needy in society. No - the members of the Cabinet (that bunch of Hoons) don't count. I would like that toilet seat Mr Prescott.
My middle class guilt tells me not to claim benefits whilst I still have savings. Perhaps I am a quasi-socialist?
