In the same way that no one has ever successfully implemented a socialist model, no one has ever successfully implemented a capitalist model - unless it included a sensible level of taxation. Capitalism doesn't work unless it is responsible capitalism.

That may not reconcile with some economic theory, but in practice it happens to be true.

Plus, we both know you were just being silly, anyway. :-)

There's the rub. There's about 45 of us silly bástards covering the bill for every other fúcker, and I'm bored with it.

Someone has to pay for Brexit. It may as well be the horrifically loaded, such as yourself.

Hang on. Are you claiming to be among the 45 richest people in the U.K.? When did this happen?

There's the rub, I'm afraid. The horrifically loaded never actually pay for anything; that's the whole point of them.

The problem is that the truly horrifically loaded can't be made to pay. If they could, they wouldn't be horrifically loaded.

Well .. it's just getting silly now, isn't it. It's so obvious even Wenger seems to have recognised it.
