All right smart arse haha
Nah, I'm more on the side of those who can, paying more. Not the amounts they do now though as I don't think it's right to be taking up to 50% of what someone earns just because they have been successful, chances are if they are making so much they are playing a large part in creating further jobs anyway.
And I'm all for less government. One of the reasons I hated labour so much was their insistence on becoming a part of every aspect of everyone's lives.
