Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

The system if allowed to continue , then it need to give people an opt out clause , if you don't want any of your taxes going to dead legs and immigrants then you should be able to have a tax rebate and opt out.
Then if the people who are happy to pay for these people , they can make up the short fall.
That seems very fair to me.

We'd also have to have an option to opt out of having to pay taxes to fix problems caused by smoking, drinking alcohol, overeating etc. Who is without sin? Do you exercise a lot Al? If not I'd like to not pay tax towards any health costs that you are going to incur for us.
Also, immigrants pay more tax than gets spent on them. Proven. Don't let a simple fact stop you repeating that kind of line. You're entitled to your opinion but at least let it be based on fact. If you don't like foreigners living here then just say it. You have before.
Nobody wants to pay for people that simply refuse to work. Despite how often you imply people do.
It's just some people can understand that making blanket statements (or policies if you were in charge) affects and harms lots of people that do not deserve to be harmed. Therefore people generally try to look for solutions that will solve the problem without ending up harming people that deserve help.
Trying to separate the truly worthy from the 'scroungers' is difficult but it is what governments are trying to do. If you have any solutions that might actually work then say so.

You don't I have my own private health care.
A large number of immigrants either don't work or earn well below the taxable rate , that is a fact , they also have families who need health care etc.
You honestly believe the equation works ? Well our financial state is testament to the fact is isn't working.

Plus far too many of the nitwits dont even speak good enough English to work in most places, and the ones that speak "some" English are causing great consternation and stress with the customers who are struggling to communicate with them. English should be mandatory, both in the UK and US. BHLs make me sick. Sure let 'em all in, that'll be ~goooooood~ for UK society. Nutjob politicians selling the whole place out. Wanna emigrate? LEARN ENGLISH TO A FUNCTIONING LEVEL."FUNCTIONING" means being able to converse in great detail about account balances, certificates of deposit, interest rates, other investment details (if they wanna be, oh, say, customer service reps for banking call centers), or electric/gas/water utilities details as regards your monthly statements, etc. (if they wanna work for a call-center in the PSE&G sector) etc... the list goes on. Proficient English should be mandatory, and I should personally write the qualifying exams, me and Miles, to test their butts out as to their literacy.

Even when you include benefits paid to working immigrants like tax credits the country is better off with them in rather than out -- until they retire and start costing serious money. But the current immigration boom kicks that can thirty odd years down the line past the time when the fiftysomethings running the country in government and the civil service have had their index-linked pensions paid by the new arrivals and then carked it. It's something for the next generations to deal with then.
What would really make things more equal is to let the chattering/political/media/professional metropolitan classes, and I'm thinking particularly London here, experience what the rest of the country has to deal with.
India produces ten million graduates a year. Far more than they need and graduates over the re are working for as little as 5k a year.
So I'm thinking send over a million visas foe English-speaking graduates. Let them come over here and let the graduate/management class in England (currently with an effective zero percent unemployment rate) feel the benfits of immigration. No more pay rises, zero hours contracts, terrified to be the first to go home every day, having to do unpaid weekends and overtime every time the phone rang and so on. Not to mention lots of them being made unemployed, house repossessions and so on. Only then would there be a change in policy. But how do you change policy? How do you pay for our demographic time bomb?

Stop making huge assumptions about countries you don't live in Brockton. I meet many new working immigrants here every week. They are not the ignorant people you seek to portray them as. They are lectures, professors and heads of department in the universities I work at, so good luck teaching them English. You and Miles both teach English as a foreign language, we get that, but there are many with phds and masters on the forum, so please try and get over yourself.

There are people with phds and masters on this forum? That sounds important. Who?

Many used to post here before you dragged the place through the gutter.
I am on one level surprised, considering your constant behind the scenes campaigning I thought you might have stopped to draw breath and actually ask someone about themselves, but on another level not at all surprised that you thought you and Miles were 'special' cases.
