Perhaps there would be more room for socialist nanny state policies if the government stopped giving rich people money and applied it elsewhere.
Or we could both stop giving rich people more money AND stop taking people's money. Imagine if you just KEPT more of what you earned and used it for yourself, instead of dumping it on a bloated governmental budget. It's a strange concept, aye, that we might be better off with LESS government everywhere, hrm?Pescado, calalily; you're such idealists.
But seriously; the world is degenerated. Do as many laws or anything that will help people in need as you wish, there will be always a twat politician, that will turn the flow into his/her pocket. Humans are evil and selfish. There's nothing we can do anymore. We're about 6.000 billion by now.... It's too late to fix things.
