As the
austerity policies being pursued by our millionaire public school
thugs, continues to bite ever deeper, it pays to have a wee look at
salaries. Over the last year people have been finding it increasingly
difficult to make ends meet, what with wage cuts/freezes, VAT
increases and rocketing fuel prices etc., but of course, this is
capitalism and it doesn't work out that way for everybody. Take those
pampered parasites the CEO of the FTSE 100 companies, this year on
average, they enjoyed a 7% salary increase on top of their already
fat-cat salaries and monopoly money bonuses. However, if you are one
of the CEO of the “blue-chip” companies, then you chuckled all
the way to your winter home in St Moritz as you enjoyed on average an
increase of 32% on your bloated undeserved salary.
I'm a CEO, I work bloody hard!!
32%
salary increase when their friends in the Westminster Houses of
Hypocrisy and Corruption, are dictating a 1% cap on public sector pay
increases, for at least two years, this after a two year pay freeze.
Remember, inflation is running at just over 5%, that makes it a
massive pay cut for all public sector workers that will continue for
the next few years. In reality, public sector workers will never get
back to the level of salary they were at two years ago.
We
are continually told we can't afford all these social services, but
there seems to be an awful lot of money sloshing around in this
corrupt system. The shape of our society, under this present system,
is all down to government choices. It is not that there is not enough
money, the government choose to spend vast sums on armaments, wars
and tax breaks to big business. It could if it so wished, spend that
money on social welfare, it could introduce a fairer tax system,
whereby those fat-cat CEO and others of that ilk, paid a larger share
into the public pot. However under this corrupt and exploitive
system, we have to realise that the government is the guardian of
wealth and power and has a duty to make sure that those with the
wealth and power see it grow and in no way can it be diminished.
Under these conditions we are foolish if we sit back and expect the
government of the day to look after our welfare at the expense of
their old school friends in the millionaires club. We don't come into
that equation, we are at times an inconvenience, and at other times a
necessity, as a mob needed to keep buying their crap. Give your
imagination a wee bit freedom, think, can you visualise an
alternative society that would see to the needs of all? It's not that
difficult!!
