Population stats are alarming
Just searched internet and found out our population is 70,000,000 of those we know about.
Worrying thing is only 35,000,000 are working to pay for the non workers.
Even more worrying is that 1.5 million are on universal credits. So we must be cascading downhill to oblivion.
The workers cannot continue paying for others through their taxes. I’m 78, still working by need and still paying income tax.
Yes I’m very lucky to be able to work but I’m aware that this system of supporting others cannot continue.
Supporting others who can’t support themselves is fine.
