However it does not mean that every thing about it is bullshit. There are always 2 sides of an argument. I think that is does not matter if you live in the UK or the USA or Aus the parties that are leading them at this moment are only crap because that you think so and because that they are not doing what you personally want them to do but lot of other folk will be thinking that they are the bees knees.

Never the less probably are finding that our lives are costing us more than it was 5 years ago and that, it is why folks attitudes are hardening against the ones who seem to have all the money and also the ones who seem to be able milk the system for all its worth. It seems to me that the £30,000 to the £40,000 salary earners in the UK are having the burden to pay for everything that the bankers and the politicians cock ups that they have done for the last 10 years. Naturally they will feel pissed off when they see their countries are filling up with foreigners with not two pennies to rub together why their living standards are going down. They also know that it will never get any better for a least the next 20 years. I never thought that I would ever say that I am pleased that I am the age that I now am.
