myata Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 (edited) It's a conscious and responsible decision. Yes: I will not object to scrapping it. The climate change is real but we have a bigger problem here now: governments. Governments in this country cannot, no longer capable of doing anything: a) intelligently and b) honestly so every undertaking results, and will result in a cash grab and some grossly overpriced mediocrity if not outright failure. The system has run itself for a while and now it's mostly running for itself. The laws on paper cannot cancel the entropy.

myata Posted February 24 Author Report Share Posted February 24 (edited) I'm curious how did the discussion go, when it was first brought in? Did anyone, just one, newbie and innocent say, look but can we really put this tax on it? Doesn't look like a service and someone would sure notice? And the wise and exalted ones, no look this is how we fund our great system (complete with your great salary, benefits and over-generous pension, infinitely) and our wise (and obedient) folk will sure understand and happily cheer for it. Just another joke, parody of democracy nobody seems to notice: pigs running their trough. What could go wrong? A jury, selection of citizens need to determine and set the pay of their representatives for a certain period, just like it's done in some sane countries: who else? Fair and realistic in the current reality of their country. It would be such a can of worms. Just don't fix it. Oh well. An essential addition here: of all stripes and colors, doesn't matter a bit. They are all in it because it pays for their entitlements, regardless of the color etc. Just ask them. How could it go wrong?
