| Mansion Tax is fine if you want a tax targeted on a small number of people who in the main are already paying way more than their fair share of income tax, council tax, VAT, stamp duty and inheritance tax. Time for us to all grow up and realise that if over the next 20 years we want to enjoy first world public services available free at the point of delivery then ALL of us are going to have to pay something towards this. The sad truth is that even this country is not full of enough "rich bastards" with broad shoulders and deep pockets to pay for all the Politicians' promises. Borrowing money from wherever to pay for basic public services is bad economics, downright immoral and theft from our children and grandchildren. Put simply it is just one giant Ponzi scheme. |
