      I love the Greeks as you do not stand any crap from anyone. You got the best straight forward attitude. Tell them all to F off. Slightly off topic I love your attitude to immigrants. You just don’t let them get ashore, you push back. Good on you that’s how it should be done look after your own first. I’m English and it’s pathetic how it’s dealt with over here. Also you have very beautiful islands and I love your football fans they are so passionate it’s like a show with the flares and banners what amazing time you must have.❤

    Kevin Bridges is so brilliant. He turns facts into funnies. Our debts in UK LOL and the rich not touched for tax evasion but the disabled they can find Kevin. The ones that fall on hard times and genuinely go bankrupt never to do it again, then those that do it 4 to 5 times knowing they use different names and play the game. Id love to see Kevin Bridges is he touring in London anytime in the new now normal. Stay safe all.

    As a Greek I simply love Kevin Bridges. Thank you Scotland for producing such a great comedian.
    You wanna know what the best part is? Those quotations are 100% correct. He didn't make them up, they actually exist. Here are the full versions.
    Socrates: He is richest who is content with least, for content is the wealth of nature.
    Epicurus: Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
    Plato: You're not getting it, you fucking cow. (ok that one WAS made up but, by Zeus, it was spot on!)
    The fact he can blend real, OG Ancient Greek Philosophy into his comedic skits, without altering the quotations and using them in the correct context makes him a comedic genius. Bravo.

    Very informed opinion. Spending more then you have and getting into debt for a household budget is fixed by cutting back because your wages will remain the same and you can pay off the debt. The BIG LIE that Tories have been peddling for years is that national economies work the same way. They don’t!!! If a government cuts expenditures tax revenue falls which means you end up with not enough money to repay the debt and end up borrowing more to keep the country running. This is what happened under the Conservative austerity policy so instead of reducing the National debt they increased it the Conservatives are provably fiscally irresponsible.
    To repay the debt the government has to spend which boosts the economy increases tax revenue then there’s spare cash to pay down the debt. Also the National debt is a bit of a red herring if you have an understanding of MMT (Modern Monetary Theory) but that’s beyond the scope of this comment.
    A grand a week dole money hell yeah that’ll boost the economy.

    • @sid35gb
      @sid35gb 4 года назад +2

      darek4488 Yes although it is dependent on how the money is spent. Because giving tax breaks to corporations will have no effect the tend to repurchase company shares to boost share price but does nothing to promote growth. It needs to be put into the hands of people who will spend it and for that money to be spent many times over to maximise the effects, this is part of how MMT works which is sometimes referred to quantitive easing and when coordinates with other countries like in 2008 can minimise the effects of inflation. But economics is no the Tories strong point when looking back at historical data.

      @@sid35gb And how the money is spent if a person deciding on it is spending someone elses money on somebody else's needs and on top of that is not responsible for any bad decision they make? They have no reason to care, they are getting paid regardless. More state spending = more inefficiency = more taxes. If taxes and bureaucracy are high then only the biggest international companies can survive. This creates monopolies. What you want is the opposite - competition and full ease of starting a new business. Look at Chile or Hongkong. Everyone can put a blanket on sidewalk and start doing business. What you earn is all yours, you don't have to share. Hard work is not only rewarded greatly, but also beneficial to the society. Growth comes from work, not redistribution.
