• How likely do you think is:

    Fully caused by the reasons you give, rather than crap management from the local voted in government?
    How do you think shutting the doors will fix it if said government is equally neocon?
    Why is it currently impossible to reward people fully fork work?

    As I agree with what you said, for example there aren't enough nurses cos there aren't enough places and it's nicer for the necons to strip the NHS. It's also not fair on other countries to "steal" people they educated and not give a crap.

    At the same time, taxes have not gone up for years and the cash has to come from somewhere. You see in areas with better provision taxes are also higher. Netherlands unfortunately also turning neocon has higher taxes, better healthcare and roads. Germany, same. Sweden, same.

    Leaving the EU to fix this seems a bit drastic and not the only solution if that makes sense?

  • I agree leaving a EU is not ideal but at the moment with the government not investing in youth of today I wonder about the future. The tory/eu solution seems to be allow the free movement and we can get ready made staff at a more efficient rate when ever we want. And those that not happy with us are free to leave. How about making this a great place to work for all people born here and those that are not. Leaving it all to free market means that selfish short termism will be king Adam Smith sang the virtues of free market but it needs to be regulated to protects us from our greed and fear. Lets not just put a pounds sign on everything. Quality of life is not related to the amount of money in you pocket, once a few basic needs are met then studies have shown happiness is not corellated to wealth.

  • The tory/eu solution

    Tories =!= EU
    The EU is not preventing the government from funding skills training. The EU is not forcing the mindless corporatisation of education. The EU is not hollowing out the NHS and undermining those who work within it.
    Vote Tories out at the next election.

  • I agree markets have to be regulated.

    That's what the EU does too. Perhaps not ideally, but it also stops the worst as it's one big compromise and being part of the EU market means you must sign up to the EHRC.

    The only solution i see:
    Vote Tories out
    Increase taxes with investment in people
    Drop uni fees as now ppl go to the Netherlands as it's cheaper (it's that bad)
    Really regulate banks
    Set up a public crowdfunder away from the IMF

    I suspect though that so much existing money was made 100s of years ago (see also the catholic church) and how we are going to catch up w/o exploiting people...no idea :/
