[QUOTE="digger64, post: 8274347, member: 16562"] The answer is simple stop taxing things ALL people/business's need /use on a daily basis like fuel ,food , alcohol and 20% vat on everything -alot of people might as well not bother getting up in the morning . How can people on £9.50 an hour go and buy a pint at £4.50 or fish and chips at £11 ? Start taxing where the money is -property/profit and remove exemptions reliefs etc. and end the obsession with house prices/ land values/high rents etc - the "opportunity cost " is destroying everything - do other countries have town centres full of charity shops ? What is the point in asking people for money if they havent actually got any ? Yes I know all the foreign money will go away-who cares ? , but you might be able afford somewhere to live though , your crops and stock might actually pay your mortgage and give you a salary . What is point in putting/investing the nations working capital into some thing it already has bought and paid for generations ago ? -the recreation of a victorian economic values era perhaps ? Nearly everything we buy on the farm is imported -things just cant be made/moved around competitively here why ? But such a policy wouldnt get you elected though as house prices are everything . But they also say you cant buck the market -its going to be interesting soon . [/QUOTE]
