Those working and having spare cash see themselves as being well off and are happy to share their wealth, until it works out they share more than they have spare but too late. Those who have nothing want a share of the wealth from those working but are not willing to work because, well, they don't have a good education, they were abused as children, they made mistakes.... the list goes on. What is happenning in the UK today is the end result of 'fairly' sharing wealth. There is not enough to go around so all suffer and those that work don't gain the benefits of their labour so they get out, if they can. Socialism, will never work because we are not ants, we want rewarded for hard work and sacrifice. It's a failedideology that just won't die because people want to help but are too thick to think logically and look at history. We burn our hand on a hot ring we take care around the oven, we kill tens of millions of people and we suggest following the same path again and again and, OH, here we go again. <blockquote>Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. - Douglas Adams (1952 – 2001)</blockquote> It’s because people are basically kind and sharing by nature.
