My views on Tax

I think the problems for me are mainly twofold in the current taxation system.

It's not that I have to pay tax, I just believe tax should be aligned with wealth and most importantly - corporations should feckin' well pay theirs.

Seemingly contrary to this, I don't believe inheritance fax in inherently fair - you should have paid a big lump more tax for owning all you do while alive, so if you then want to give it to your kids - that's your right. Else, why the hell are we all trying so hard?

The problems comes in when the average Joe gets harangued to death by the taxman, while Google and Amazon sit laughing in their billion pound piles.

Furthermore, there are a lot of people getting paid far too much for NOT working hard. So it only seems right to tax those 'posh bastards' (usually MP's and their hierarchical bedfellows) and the cycle continues.
