Fixing the housing market cannot be done with house building, we could have to concrete over our entire country and it still wouldn't be enough. We would have to asset strip from foreigns, and asset strip from corporate landlords, and build houses. If we do that, the housing market will implode. A lot of older people own houses as a form of wealth security.
As it currently stands, I am paying into a pension that I will never be able to access. It exists to fund someone elses pension and honestly I'm fucking sick of it. I'm just sick of funding other peoples lives. I don't want to do it, I hate doing it, it pisses me off. Everywhere I go, I just see leeches. It's like a seething colony of parasites devouring my ability to build a life and it fucks me off. I pay for my healthcare out of pocket because the money I give to the government is pissed into an endless black hole.
So if we can't realistically increase the supply of something.....what can be done ? Possibly look at demand side issues. Now what would be one way of possibly dampening the demand for housing ? ( Countdown clock playing in the background ).........Could it be to get rid of the massive influx of non-indigenous population ? If the goverment deported say 5 million worthless subhuman scum that contribute nothing to the economy, that might possibly have an impact ? More than that, it would most likely impact at the lower end of the market where most first time buyers are.......
I totally agree with you about leeches. But I've been banging on about this forever. There are simply too many people in this country with their hands out expecting a free ride and not contributing to the economy.
From my ( entirely biased, but I would agure realistic perspective ) how do you get voted into power on a manifesto of deportations and slashing benefits, lowering taxes and hammering the poncing inefficient ( polite euphemism for fucking lazy ) public sector ?
That would be the only way to sort out the economic and civil problems in this country - but then you'd have pakis, blacks, the unemployed North and the teachers, train drivers, civil service and all the other poncing unions voting against you. In other words everybody that isn't white and doesn't work for a living. We have reached a critical mass it seems, where the poncing mass outweighs those that work for a living - a doom spiral, in the fact that the ponces can't be sustained any more, but can't be outvoted to change the system to a more sustainable one either.
Why do you think you are funding someone else's pension? Because it was stolen from them and given to the migrants. It's not even a secret.
The UK State Pension is primarily funded on a "pay-as-you-go" (PAYG) basis, meaning current National Insurance (NI) contributions from working-age adults pay for the pensions of current retirees. It is not a fund where personal contributions are invested for the future, but rather a tax-funded benefit.
So in that respect Chunky is correct in the fact that his NI contributions pay the current old folk's pensions. The idea being that the current generation of old folk paid for their parents' pensions. So in theory the generation below us should be paying our pensions.
The problem is of course dependency ratios ( steadily increasing, aging population, smaller current workforce ) and the fact that the system was designed a while ago when people's life expectancy meant most people were only being paid out for a few years, rather than the decades they are now ( actuarial tables, etc ).
Is the current system sustainable as it is ? Probably not, especially not if you have all the other detractors from the public purse I've outlined above.
The reality of the situation is that there are simply too many hangers on and some hard decisions are going to have to be made, but NO POLITICIAN ( and I mean none ) has the stones to do it, because it would always be very unpopular with one or more of the sections of society.
The simple fact of the matter is the pie is basically the same size or maginally increasing ( all this line goes up business you lot love talking about ) but PER CAPITA it is less. What happens at pizza time ? If you order the special and there's 3 of you, it's a feast, if there's 33, you barely get a mouthful each. Labour's plan was to order two specials, but they have no idea where the pizza shop is, who owns it, what they do, or how to order ( they have killed economic growth with taxes to fund the bonuses they paid to all the ponces who voted them in ).
That is the problem with the Chancellor's modelling, they don't seem to take the crucial factor of how many people into account.
Personally, I have always thought that those who pay in the most should be the first in line to get paid back out ( I don't mean they should get more, but just to me, it seems like very basic fairness that those who contribute the most should get something back ). Whereas those who pay in the least should be at the back of the queue. Unfortunately bleeding heart socialists structured it so the most "in need" are the most deserving. The current government seems to view our "refugee friends" as the most deserving ( despite having contributed nothing ).
All racism and paki sperging aside, I have never seen the roads this bad in my life and not one politician has put forward any tax or legislation or plan to fix the roads.
I think there are a multitude of reasons for this. Greens don't want the roads fixed, we should all be busy recycling, eating bugs and cycling everywhere. A massive factor is electric vehicles. They are a lot heavier than other types of vehicle ( 20-30% ) so it stands to reason that there will be extra force required to move them and stop them. As they aren't hover cars, this force has to go through the tyres and into the roads. This has to mean that electric cars will wear out the roads faster. A third reason is possibly our increasingly Orwellian State doesn't want the peasants to have the ability to travel ( either the freedom it creates ( they certainly want you tracked ) or the ability to travel to be part of a group (resistance)),
Also, so far as I'm aware, road tax isn't earmarked exclusively to the upkeep of roads. It disappears into the pot and is spent on keeping the invaders and dole ponces in the life they have become accustomed to.
