Aren't under 40s going to get old then?

What has been needed in this country for decades is an elected government that actually does the job they were elected to do.

This country needs all government's that gets elected to run the country to stop spending ten's of billions of pounds on pie in the sky projects and get back to grass roots.

Immigration/borders, law and order, N.H.S, education system, highway maintenance.

The last 50 years have seen the true rot set into this country with the basic building blocks of this country and its people being eroded away. While a small select group make fortunes of others misery.

More and more taxes will not fix the base problems, but our spineless politicians, in my opinion, do not see that as an option. Just push it back on the electorate.

Any government that sells off its countries infrastructure to private enterprise, in my opinion, is not fit for purpose. Not to mention bailing them out when they run them into the ground for profit /dividends.

I know of someone elderly who is in a care home in Gloucestershire. Cost per week is £870.  

Hypothetically when you get to the age that your quality of life requires a lot of assistance/drugs etc and you cannot get around or enjoy your surroundings. Why not commit a crime that requires long term prison time. Now your new home has staff obligied by law to look after you for free. As I say hypothetical, but certainly one avenue.

What's are the other choices, pay through the nose to end up in an old people's home that you have to pay the privelege to be in!
