WARRIOR OF LIGHT: Oh dear, are you not enjoying our adventure?
G'RAHA TIA: Come now, I didn't say that. While it may not be the most carefree experience, there is nothing in this world I would rather do than write a new future with you. A *long* future...
In 1970 the Government owned Energy, it owned Water, it owned Rail, it owned Mail, it owned Steel, it owned Shipbuilding, it owned Oil and Gas.
There was a 100% tax on these industries profits.
Now many of them pay 0% tax.
That is where all the money has gone.
You save for six months and finally get a 1,000 dollar emergency fund.
Then your check engine light comes on.
Or the dog gets sick.
Or two things hit in the same week.
One bad month and you are back to zero plus interest.
People are not bad with money.
The game is rigged to reset them.
Yup. He’s up to 11 pounds. They have to transfer him to another hospital for because the current hospital he���s at cannot meet his complex needs. The family is 100% responsible for the cost even tho the state forced them to keep that poor woman “alive” as a human incubator.
No news outlet is covering this, you know why? Because the fucking experiment on a black woman’s body has FAILED miserably. The only updates are from grandma’s go fund me. They let that woman die for a clump of cells (she was only 9 weeks pregnant at the time) that’s not even doing ok 6 months later. 6 months is a long time to be in nicu!
Adriana Smith is her name. I am so sorry the state did this to you. You were a 30 year old nurse with a kid who was already here who needed you. The state failed you, the very hospital that you worked at who was so supposed to help you failed you…everybody failed you.
The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling.
All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense.
Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need.

“If you go back a million minutes, you reach 2023. Go back a billion minutes, you reach the Roman Empire — that’s the scale of inequality we’re living with.”
Zack Polanski on #BBCLauraK discussing inequality and why a wealth tax should be in the budget
Ahead of next week's Budget, the Green Party is calling for immediate cost of living measures to cut bills by hundreds of pounds, and for fair taxes on extreme wealth to raise over £30 billion a year.
Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.
The world's richest 1% own 45% of the world's wealth.
The problem is not immigration. The problem is greed.
Hoarding creates poverty.
It's time to ban billionaires.
Food profits have increased more than 30% in Europe since 2021.
While in the US/UK they have increased nearly 200%.
There is no 'inflation' only profiteering.
The top benefit claimants in the UK.
1. The Royal Family £500m a year.
2. Billionaires £320m a year EACH.
3. MPs many claiming more than £50,000 a year in PERSONAL benefits.
Yeah lets crackdown on these ridiculous benefits multimillionaires/billionaires.
Covid was a wasted opportunity. During lockdown the climate of earth drastically improved, outdated work practices were uprooted & people had time for their own lives. It's a shame none of that continued.
Pretty much everything has doubled, with fuck all opposition & barely a word across our entire politics & media, but Who needs to talk about that when there's all these Flags to shag & Migrants & Trans people to blame for all our ills?
