Social Management
Fair Or Farce?
Why is it that so many people, in what is a relatively rich country, are struggling to make ends meet and likewise so many people have more money than they could ever possibly spend in a million years?
Good Idea Deprivation
A call to make it illegal for big companies to buy up the rights to anything that would otherwise be seen to benefit people or planet, for the purpose of preventing its manufacture and availability purely to preserve profit. Many good ideas have already been bought up and shelved on this basis purely and simply so that companies can ensure maximum profits. Where progress and technological evolution is concerned, anything that can be seen to benefit people and help preserve our environment should be developed and made available. The suppression of such otherwise beneficial ideas for individuals' monetary gain is morally unjust and should certainly be illegal.
Wealth Distribution
Why is it that so many people, in what is a relatively rich country, are struggling to make ends meet and likewise so many people have more money than they could ever possibly spend in a million years?
Local Council Resource Allocation
A diversion of resource allocation from
unnecessary, motorist unfriendly, traffic schemes, and other such disagreeable and wasteful installations, to the provision and promotion
of more activity centres and facilities for young people with emphasis on giving
them something worthwhile in order to get them of the street corners where they
often get into trouble and cause problems for local residents.
Accounting For Actions
A call to institute an 'account for
your actions policy' which will be levied against council departments and individuals
shown to be responsible for abusing public funds by spending them on schemes
that are obviously a backward step, a non-improvement, or that nobody wants.
After all, if you are going to spend (or waste) some one else's money you should
be accountable for what you spend it on and answerable for your errors, just
like anyone else in any other job. Just because you work for local government
doesn't mean you should be immune. All public servants and departments should be accountable, not untouchable.
Manage Facilities - Don't Take Them Away!
It is becoming more and more apparent that local authorities are depriving the public of certain
facilities rather than being bothered to address any problems with them.
Benefit Thieves?
The Government seem to be putting a lot of emphasis on advertising the fact that if you are on benefits and do any form work on the side without declaring your earnings, you will be targeted and prosecuted as a criminal. Yes, we know there are some people out there who do take the proverbial and possibly do deserve to be treated so harshly, however, most are people that are disadvantaged in some way, encumbered with young children, or just unable to find a decent job to make working full time viable and worthwhile. Whatever way you look at it, most of these people hardly have anything to begin with, and the amounts of money they are expected to live on somehow do not realistically relate to the cost of the corrupt and imbalanced society that we live in. A worse crime, surely, is coining it in on the side when you really don't need it. You really don't need it because you already earn very significant amounts of money and consequently already have everything you need. Depriving the public purse in these such fraudulent circumstances would surely be pure selfish and unjustifiable greed, and you would think, given the fuss that the Government make about people trying to scratch a living on benefits, punishable in the extreme. However, this does not seem to be the case, as long as you work for the people making the fuss. Yes, unbelievably, if you are an MP working for the people making the fuss, you can fraudulently coin in very significant amounts of money on the side, depriving the public purse in the process. Even though you don't need it, don't deserve it and don't have to live everyday under the financial stress of wondering where the next penny is coming from, if you are an MP, you can take the P, and simply walk away scot-free!
Fed Up With The Rat Race
Why are so many people so fed up with the rat race? Simple. The balance of emphasis is far to far over on the need to make money. Why? Because life is so expensive, and because all too often, people are not paid enough money for what they do.
Slavery Still Abounds In The Western World
When the time came to abolish slavery, we all thought that humanity was reaching a new level of understanding and appreciation, a new era of enlightenment. However, be this as true as it may be, it is also true to say that slavery still abounds in the modern western world. Nowadays of course, slavery is disguised in a way so as to make it less obvious, but nevertheless, it is still as prevalent as ever, even in its disguised form. The controlling factor is no longer fear and intimidation, it is instead, money. With the aid of money, the controlling people realised that they didn't have to be quite so blatant about their domination of the subservient. Here are some of the dictionary definitions from the Oxford Dictionary pertaining to the word Slavery.... Severe toil, exhausting labour, drudgery. The condition or fact of being a slave, servitude; onerous subjugation. Subjection to, or domination by, a specified influence. The practice or institution of keeping slaves, the existence of slaves as a class. Sound familiar?
Social Conditioning
People are conditioned by the experiences they have in life. If a person has the wrong kind of experiences, they will be conditioned to exhibit undesirable tendencies.
What's The Choice?
There are any things a person can get into in this world, some are creative and enhance and improve the quality of life for others, some are destructive and degrade and impair the quality of life for others.
Fuel Rip Off Make Rich Richer While People Shiver!
Why are the fuel companies, which supply our gas and electric, a utility which used to be owned by the people, now making an absolute mint for the rich while so many ordinary people are sitting around shivering because they can't afford the prices?
