It's the rich what gets the pleasure, it's the poor what gets the pain   » Permalink  |  TrackBack (0)

Pete, over at the Fat Man in the Bathtub has hit the nail spot on the head:

The greater the gap between the wealthiest and the poorest, the greater the chance of profound social disharmony.
... and the video is worth a play or two!

Ever been to Dubai?

The real enemy to social cohesion is worklessness.

I blame the noveau riche who insist on flaunting their wealth - proper aristos know that they should dress down and look scruffy so that the plebs don't get upset.

They should have gone on strike when all was well, we only appreciate the low paid if we are happy with our lot. We are not now happy with our lot alas, and as a result the bloody poorly paid really piss us off. Not our fault they left school with no qualifications, and now with inflation going through the roof this bolshy crowd want more, I think not.

It's amazing how many people don't believe this truly simple bit of common sense. But I suppose we have to consider - do these people not believe, or do they *choose* not to believe?
