If there is an expense to an ethical dilemma then that will have to be addressed if the situation is resolved to remove the image.

The horrible 'Filthy Rich' monsters which are the entire Tory Party, the Land Grabbing Working Class exploiting Aristocracy, and a whole plethora of greedy exploitive Corporations who make huge profits from the merchandise produced by badly paid workers in 'Third World Sweatshops' - ALL pay taxes and have done since before you were born.

Give me one example of ANYONE in receipt of ANY type of benefit returning even PART of it due to a troubled conscience because of where some of the that benefit money originated from.

DITTO usage of NHS facilities, from Dentists to Hospitals.

DITTO a myriad other services and facilities we all take for granted in our daily lives.

I asked a similar question on the 'Open Door' immigration threads, for those advocating letting into this country all and sundry, to post if they were willing to, or indeed HAD already, let these 'desperate poor immigrants' live and sleep in their own homes, and the silence of response was deafening.

Similarly, I do not expect any type of affirmative response to this question either.

Which gives these 'protests' and views a hollow ring.

This country - like every other - is HISTORICALLY BUILT and CURRENTLY ENDURES upon the taxes of its citizens, and the wealth CREATED by its entrepeneurs, and that money -- no matter where it originates from, or how immorally it was historically made -- is inextricably steeped into the foundations, infrastructure, and superstructure of this country, and to 'protest' about aspects of it whilst gladly availing oneself of the whole, is just pure hypocritical B.S - in my opinion.
