  1. Taxing cigarettes stops people from smoking. What does taxing work do?

  2. Funding has increased massively. Why has the NHS failed to turn that into treatment? Then there's the debts. Pension debts. Treat now, pay latter. Have you seen the size of those debts and costs?

  3. The solution is a Bismark system. Holland and Switzerland as an example. Rated number 1 and 2 in the world for health care. The NHS doesn't' even make the premier league when you include Scotland. In a Bismark system, regulation insurance and supply are split. That prevents the conflicts of interest

  5.  @skyblazeeterno  What's the point of your post? It's a tax on work. Just like taxes on cigarettes stop smoking, this tax will cause unemployment.

  6.  @therealrobertbirchall  So how do you pay a 16 trillion socialist pension debt? What effects does that debt have? How does the magic of socialism solve a socialist nightmare?

  7.  @therealrobertbirchall  So lets talk about a NHS doctor. Are they owed a pension?

  8.  @therealrobertbirchall  Who says the rich owe people money? If you have a mortgage free house, where's the debt?

  9.  @therealrobertbirchall  So the welfare state owes people a pension for the contributions they have paid in. The wealth of the workers has gone in. Where are the assets? All spent. None of that money has gone to the rich. It's all been distributed. It's not in some off shore account run by the DWP. It's all gone, and the debt is hidden off the books. So how do you pay the socialist debts? 16 trillion for pensions. How are you going to pay your 600,000 share at 10% per year? If you think that the rich will, think again. They aren't rich enough to pay that. Top 200 sunday times rich list. Exclude the foreigners and you have 220 bn total. IF, and its a big IF you can take that you have to explain how you will liquidate to get the money to pay the increase in those pension debts for a couple of months. It's a once off, so what happens after two months?

  10.  @therealrobertbirchall  The Rich have paid into the state vast amounts of money. Reeves is about to up that with her NI increase. So have the workers in general. Trillions paid in Where's all that money gone? They are still owed a pension. Of course the "rich" have invested. It's because they have decided to save for later in life. Now you are desperate for that money because of the debts. Why not deal with the 30% gross profit margin Starmer is making on taxes?

  11.  @neveraskedforthis270  When their companies go bust they do.

  13.  @skyblazeeterno  Standard left wing approach. Oil companies paying tax is a subsidy apparently.

  14.  @skyblazeeterno  Another mistake. VAT is paid as a percentage of the purchase price. Employer's NI is paid as a percentage of the salary. In both cases, who writes the cheque? The company, not the employee or purchaser. But ask them about VAT and its the consumer who pays. Now ask them who pays the employer's NI, its not the employee, but in reality it is
