Fúck it I hope things go proper tits up and all the banks close down.
I wouldn't have to pay my mortgage then.
They will be bought by some book-debt collector and then you will probably have to pay more than at present for the extra cost!
Actually its not just the benefits that is the biggest problem ...
1. The Banks (RBS Group, Lloyds Banking Group and BBBS*) - in helping to save them cost us well over 100 billion, and just think of the amount of interest that generates on a daily basis
2. All the quangos that leech from the government coffers
3. Railtrack and the Train operating companies - at least 4 billion each year is given to the rail industry just to keep the trains moving and then more and more on top is given to help railtrack out in keeping the infrastructure in place
4. The amount of people in local government and in the quangos they are letting go due to the government cuts - just imagine how much they are having to fork out. I know someone who works for a quango - was on a wage of 28,000/year, has now been laid off given 6 years wage due to length of years teh person has worked for thw quango and then compensation on top. Now times that by million that are being laid off and then having to find extra money to fund the extra people on the dole plus other benefits....
