More help for the wealthy, another kick in the teeth for the poor.

Because of the high price of gas and electricity gormless Gordon has now announced that he is going to give everyone getting child benefit £150 of their taxes back. This would be fine if child benefit was means tested and only paid to those who need it but it isn't. It is paid to anybody who has children. It is a well documented fact that a large proportion of people who get child benefit use it to pay for a second holiday and other luxuries.

So this winter poor single people without kids sitting in their overpriced rooms, wrapped up in layers of clothing, unable to turn their heating on because they cant afford it can keep warm from the satisfying glow it gives them knowing that their landlord has an extra £150 to spend on his winter holiday in Miami.

I keep thinking that there is nothing left that Labour can do to hurt the poor in this country but just when I think they have hit rock bottom they come up with something like this.

If you want to help the poor gormless the answer is simple. Stop taxing them to death and giving their money to the better off.

About the only American trend that has never caught on in this country is Assasination. But when I look at gormless Gordons smug face and look at the damage he is doing to this country and when I think of how people are suffering from his tax the poor to help the rich policies I honestly wish it would catch on and sincerely look forward to him being the first target.
