Is Accyexplorer right to ignore his responsibility at the ballot thus allowing couldn't care less folk to be governed by couldn't care less politicians?
We all need to get off our arses and vote, the difference it would make is almost negligible, as Margaret always says, 'if voting made a difference they wouldn't let us do it'.
But if and it's a big if, 60% voted, those in power just might think twice before introducing draconian measures, it could just put their jobs on the line.

I wouldn't worry too much about my avoidence in my early years,it's the evasion you need to worry about.

evasion = an act or instance of escaping, avoiding, or shirking something:
evasion of one's duty.
Evasion | Define Evasion at Dictionary.com
You are just as guilty as any other thief, even if it is for a lesser amount, so perhaps you shouldn't use such terms as 'blood on their hands' until you find a way of cleaning it off your own?

I won't try and defend my (legal) ways...as hypocritical as i may be,it's my way of sticking the middle finger up at those in power.

O.K. I admit to a glaring error in the above paragraph:-
'Caring' & 'Politician' should never be seen next to each other in anything but a humorous phrase.

Fair dinkum, i'll deal with a prison sentence and wealth confiscation proportional to the amount evaded if they do.
Pointless whinging really,nothing will change until there is a dramatic change in how the economy is organised and that (historically) requires revolution (or war)...will it happen here in the uk? Hmmm as i say.

Yes,your right,it's all my fault.
I'm sure if the working classes that avoided tax actually paid their dues those at the top would be less incline to bend everyone over a barrel.

No, not all, just partly. Just as it's partly my fault for not caring that you avoided paying tax in the past.

I think you'll find that the working classes are the least likely to be avoiding tax. The "ones at the top" have everyone over a barrel because most people don't have the funds to weasel out of a tax bill, either using an accountant to avoid it legally or a lawyer if they are caught doing it illegally.
