Corporations are raking in record profits on a quarterly basis. No one is saying they should be breaking even so that people can sit in council housing eating Dorito's all day. People are saying they should be paying fair tax into the treasury.

In the US last year, corporations paid a record low 11% tax, and they're only the ones who don't have bases in the Caymans tax haven.

How much is too much?

Corporations rely on people having money in their pockets to buy their products. The average earnings of the top 10% are growing exponentially, whereas the income of the middle/working class has remained relatively stagnant.

Fairness doesn't mean communism or anti-capitalist. It means fair.

I say this as someone who earns twice what our national salary is. I'm not a work shy, moaner. I'm someone advocating for fairness and everyone chipping in.

The Tories would have gone to war with Bush, too.

All parties become complacent with years of power. The scandals hitting the last Tory government towards the end of their last term were almost a daily occurrence.

That's just a fact, that is inarguable.

Bush and Blair are supposedly different sides of the political spectrum, and that's the problem. The whole political conversation has become a centre right discussion.

Arista, you really should take the time to read a different perspective to your own. The government should work for it's citizens, not the other way round.

We are America's lap dog and when they say "jump", we ask politely "how high". The elected leaders make little difference. Thatcher would have followed Reagan till the ends of the earth, whilst she was busy taking milk from the mouths of our countries children.

Why are you so anti-labour? The Tories were equally corrupt. Livia will back me up on that.

The Tories are ****, and so are labour.

I might not back you on that. Not entirely.

Regarding Thatcher and her relationship with Reagan... During the Falklands conflict in 1982, Reagan, initially keeping the USA well out of any side-taking by sending Haig backwards and forwards on a fruitless "peace mission", urged thatcher to call a ceasefire. Thatcher refused. Reagan was forced to give his backing to the UK. She was no lap dog. And this was twelve years after she abolished school milk. That happened in 1970 when she was Secretary of State for Education. The Tories having just come in to power had to make cuts because of the overspending by the outgoing Labour government. Sounds familiar...?

No political party will ever please all of the people all of the time. They can only please some of the people some of the time.

I do think from history arista, it would have been totally unlikely that a Conservative govt would not have gone to war with the USA in Iraq too. I personally couldn't see a Conservative PM refusing to go along with a Republican President of the USA, they did in 1990/91 as to Iraq too.

Like Bush jnr, a Conservative govt would have also seized on the opportunity to complete the job started in 1990/91.

I contribute though my taxes. I also make donations to worldwide political organisations that are pushing for more progressive solutions to world events. Last year, for example, I flew over to Wisconsin to take part in fightback against an ultra conservative governor who stripped bargaining rights away from workers, after giving huge tax breaks to corporations.

I've visited many parts of the world to offer a pair of hands to work and help in the construction of village infrastructure.

I also chip in to a Pizza fund for the occupy movement.

My conscience is clear. I don't stand atop a mountain, looking down at poor people and sneer at them for not getting off their lazy arses. I involve myself in the things I'm passionate about.
