After which there will be no more welfare state and everyone will survive or otherwise by their own efforts not from someone elses. So the the world that emerges is going to be stark one for everybody and only those that can will survive and those than can't will not.Antistheneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10120647617145756102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5001867295510218749.post-30148485412918104612010-04-01T07:50:50.484+01:002010-04-01T07:50:50.484+01:00The problem is Antisthenes, that when it all gets ...The problem is Antisthenes, that when it all gets blown away, those of us who have paid for everybody elses comfort to the detriment of ourselves through high taxes and restrictions on private saving and pillaged pensions will be left with nothing.<br /><br />The world will not have returned to where it should be, it will have a gaping hole in the middle where the highest contributers to the system will be left high and dry with no time left to undo the damage that has been forced upon them against their will.Tony_Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729030784452630545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5001867295510218749.post-63928983659108609972010-03-31T21:20:19.566+01:002010-03-31T21:20:19.566+01:00There is of course a moral to this story.

When you unleash a juggernaut as the 1945 Labour government did with the launch of the welfare state then only a massive obstacle can arrest it's progress that obstacle that is fast approaching is a precipice. When it eventually falls to it's destruction then all else will go with it having been swept before it in it's relentless progress. The good news is of course for those who survive they will find a world as it should be the bad news it will not at first be to their liking.Antistheneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10120647617145756102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5001867295510218749.post-83756538070358009092010-03-31T19:03:15.993+01:002010-03-31T19:03:15.993+01:00Additional bit about NI.
