A class of people? You mean our democratically elected officials? For all their flaws, I would rather they do something productive with "some" of the resources we're talking about here rather than putting it to use on just another bottle of Dom Perignon. Sure, even that generates economic activity, but there are much better economically multiplying activities that can be invested in.
- qaq 5y agoWell at the point of time when policies are that to the left hard to imagine you will still have elected officials but who knows
- GlennS 5y ago> that to the left hard He's talking about stopping funding for the British Monarchy, not nationalising the means of production. It's not a majority position, but it's hardly hard left.
- burnished 5y agoFucking lefties with their big government, wanting to.. stop paying the monarchy for breathing.
- robertlagrant 5y agoOfficials are not democratically elected.
- LightG 5y agoMine is. Sorry if you're living in North Korea. I'm rooting for your revolution.
- robertlagrant 5y agoYou vote for all the officials that write your legislation and bylaws, and administrate them? In my country we just vote for the people who take the credit/blame for the work a relatively static administrative system does.
