It's the Ronald Reagan style of Government. <i>"If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it."</i> To say it's a load of bollocks is being kind.

It’s the Ronald Reagan style of Government.

“If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it.”

Socialism is one of those things the world would be better without. It makes me laugh at the moment Labour referring to itself as the 'party of aspiration' don't make me laugh. Socialists don't believe in aspiration. Conservatism is about saying I've got nothing but with hard work and determination I can be someone and get what I want. Socialism says I've got nothing while the 'toffs' have everything so I will bring them down to my level. Socialism is simply the politics of bitterness, jealousy and envy and there is no finer example of that at the moment with Labour's bitter and childish class war.

True Conservatism is about having the freedom and personal responsibility to reach your own potential and in turn benefit society as a whole; so why the fuck have socialism??? It does the opposite to what it claims to intend! Socialism is about having nothing or very little and wanting everyone to be like you; have nothing.
