@Finance-Food-and-Freetime while that was necessary and laudable, it was for paying the bills. Average people paid the same bills they always paid, they didn't get to use it to invest or anything like that Meanwhile, at the top they were buying more property and shares than ever. Now the government say we need to fill the financial hole, guess who is going to pay most of it? It was necessary and laudable, but now it's being used as yet another wealth transfer upwards. The people who scraped through are being asked to pay back the most, while the people who profited pay next to nothing back 🙁

To head off the inevitable "it's just jealousy" argument - nope, this is about competence. We've given the super rich free reign for decades now to show that they know what they are doing, and they have run the country into the floor Time to let someone else direct all that wealth, we can't afford to have billionaires in charge!
