    Lately Ive been thinking a lot,how different really are the government and people at the top to the other end criminals and lowlifes at the bottom of the spectrum.
    Im in college studying at the moment and will be hit by the raise in fees.I like so many people will suffer because of the people at the top who abused their power over the last 50 odd years!The bankers,civil service,fas heads and the Government cronies to name but a few.
    Ive watched the movie Goodfellas lately(great movie must see) and am just intrigued at the way of life these "gangsters" lived.They stole,bribed the cops,killed people and abused their power.Ring any bells?They lived the live of kings owning cars,property,out every night etc.
    But in the end Henry Hill and co. were caught out and senticed.I was mildly disappointed to see them put away tbh!
    The government...whats the difference?

    They wear bad fitting suits.
    They do not have sexy accents.
    They are not clever.
    They have no balls.
    They have manky nicknames like 'Biffo' instead of 'Jimmy two finger Jones' or something.
    They look as powerful as a fart taking on a hurricane.
    They all have bad haircuts. Shocking in fact.

    Brian Cowen might have moved slow......
    ....but it was only because Brian Cowen didn't have to move for anybody.
