HOW ARE YOU DOING ?

Just a quick graph showing an overview of what has happened to us during the first decade of the new millenium.


Pretty good if you're a corporation or a banker or a speculator or an oil company. Not so good if you're an average Joe who needs a job and uses a car.

A smaller number of employees drawing 5% less wages than 10 years ago has produced a 118% increase in corporate profits.

That's just greedy. Is it any wonder people are beginning to copy the fat cats and just take whatever they want whenever they can?

What's the difference between a politician making multiple expense claims for flat screen TVs and somebody looting a TV shop during a riot?

Answer : The politician gets delivery included.

Educating Slaves !

The British higher education system has been changed drastically over the last 20 years.

When I was a student, I got a full mandatory grant, a discretionary hardship grant, a book grant and heavily subsidised canteen facilities.

After a very comfortable time at college, I left higher education with a useful qualification that enabled me to be flexible in my career choice, not be tied to a corporations dictatorial mandate and I had no fear of debt.

The last 20 years has seen all the benefits that I received, systematically dismantled. These educational rights have been replaced with a system whereby students are leaving education with massive debts.

The jobs that most of these graduates will end up doing, would have been done by similar people with a couple of 'A' levels 20 years ago.

All that has happened is that the jobs market has been fixed in order that a large percentage of the new working population are being systematically enslaved by debt at the start of their careers; at the start of their adult lives; before they can even think about housing, families etc

During the next phase of this program, employers will bring down graduate wages to a median figure of less than £21,000. The feed in interest repayment taper will become a ceiling for employers to exploit.

Fancy a workforce that's too scared to answer back or question management?
Fancy a workforce enslaved by the fear of their own debts?
Then look no further. Employ a graduate today. Or even better employ a cheaper slave in 3 years time.

It's time to wake up !
It's time to take back control !
It's time to change your destiny !
