Re: General Election

I wonder how any country can expect to operate when 1/5 of all able bodied adults in employment are public employees (non producers and non taxpayers) .note ...... Taxes paid by public employees are just recycled £s paid into the system previously by private emplyees and compaies and as such cannot be counted as 'new wealth')

National Statistics Online

and 1/3 of all homes are in reciept of Govt. benefits for at least 1/2 of its income, and therefore are non contributors to the system

One third of homes dependent on benefits - Telegraph

simple math shows that a majority of the population 1/5 +1/3 = 8/15 (20% +33.3% = 53%) is being financially supported by a lesser number of legitimate taxpayers , hardly conducive to a competive economy
