Two articles from the Daily Sceptic illustrate this with clarity:
Losses to “Fraud and Error” From Taxpayer-Backed Covid Loan Scheme Estimated at £15 Billion. Where Did it All Go?
Nobody asks "where did it all come from" because we know the answer - the benighted taxpayer will fund it one way or the other.
Sure, some minor small fry have been "caught with suitcases stuffed with cash" but what about the major villains?
So what to do? Must we join the criminal fraternity to defraud the government in order to stay afloat? Criminal activity does not attract me.
The NHS is Failing – and the Public Know It. Do the Politicians?
Is this all down to "Covid"?
No, it's down to the big-pharma-big-government-big-media complex and their campaign of fear and (it must be faced) lies, that inflated a mild seasonal illness of no particular significance into a global pandemic of terrifying proportions.
Well, actually, that's merely the latest and greatest manifestation.
For instance, we've been looking for a "cure for cancer" which has been seemingly "just around the corner" (if only we give them more "money for R&D") for unconscionable decades, and still they push treatments that destroy our immune system upon us. How does this make sense?
In my experience, if you can't find the solution, then you are looking in the wrong place - so stop looking in our wallets.
The good news is that the public are waking up to the NHS scam, even if they don't yet know what to do about it.
Do our politicians know it? Sadly they show no sign of such awakening.
But we are a democracy - we can vote them out!
The French just tried that, and failed for reasons that we in the UK can only speculate about. The French have been demonstrating for years now against Macron, and he was of course being mobbed by adoring crowds all the way on the campaign trail (perhaps by nearly as many as mobbed candidate Biden in 2020) - yet somehow they miraculously voted him back in?
We have no reason to think that our politicians are any better than politicians elsewhere, they are just better (perhaps the best) at covering their posteriors and surviving. For all the talk of democracy, they seem to be expert at shovelling money in directions diametrically opposed to both public opinion and the public good to cronies of all kinds (pharmaceuticals, bankers, arms companies, consultancies, lawyers, media, "charities", "think tanks", "usual suspect" big-outsourcing, civil service, minor parliaments, "green" energy projects with poor-to-useless prospects, power-hungry supranational bodies etc etc).
"By their fruits shall you know them".
Yes, our politicians almost certainly do know it.
But we in the UK have the "mother of parliaments" - we do it right. Don't we? We could elect - let's say - Sir Keir to put right all that Boris has messed up.
I have nothing personal against Sir Keir but we have been electing alternate parties for decades, and how did things turn out? Sir Keir is just the latest alternate puppet in a long line, just like Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, Theresa, and Boris before him.
We need to reimagine and rebuild our government without the political parties, and far smaller - small enough for we the people to choose, pay, and control those of our representatives that remain.
That means returning responsibility for most of the things that government currently messes up for us to the lowest practicable level.
It's a long list, but much of it we can do without.
Such as taxation. If we want something, we could do it by voluntary public subscription. No funds = no project!
Could it really be that simple?!
