    Would you rather pay a lot of tax and have excellent services or would you rather pay a low tax and have **** services?

    Me? I'd rather the former, I'm a socialist beneath it all.

    I like our current system, moderate taxes, but just the greatest zombie bank ever.

    I'd like value for money, i don't mind paying for services that work. I resent paying taxes for over bloated government quangos and obscene wages, pension plans and golden handshakes for the golden few, a terrible fact of life in this Banana Republic that can't even grow bananas.

    ****, boards is slow. I don't mind paying high taxes if they get allocated to the services properly and not pissed about with. It's like a bleedin running tap trying to fill a sink with no plug in the er, hole thingy. Fricken waste is what I mean.

    I'd rather pay less taxes and have far less from the government. Get the Death Penalty and gun ownership and the right to shoot intruders dead and I'd be very happy.

    So you want legal murder and less for the poor. You sound like a nice dude.
