Know your place!
The Daily Mail reports here on new "house tax" proposals, enforcement and assessment.
You can see for yourselves just how insidious socialism is. ZaNuLabour want to tax what they call "site positive" features (none of which are government provided) including double-glazing, the view, gardens, patios, conservatories, number of bedrooms and number of parking spaces. In order to assess this information: "Parliament today would pave the way for council tax inspectors to have new powers to enter and assess properties. In an alarming addition, residents who 'fail to give reasonable assistance' or do not cooperate with the inspectors will be fined £1,000 and be recorded on local police and court records. "
That's right you must show us around, let us poke our noses into your property and tax you for every little thing you have. You might be trying to improve your lot and that will never do. Don't you know the socialist revolution will be fermented by the suffering workers? They won't be suffering with double glazing and scenic views will they?
This sort of proposal shows us just how evil socialism is. Instead of encouraging people to look forward and to strive for greater things, it tries to keep them in their place (by use of unnecessary taxes and inspections) with greater certainty than feudalism.
It speaks volumes of the supine nature of our national character that the government can even think about doing such a thing. Had this been proposed by a king there would have been an outcry, so why should an apparatchik master be allowed to get away with it?
The government must be reduced to a servile status; it must be made to serve the people, those who should be the masters in a democracy. The government should have no rights to enter upon private property, (except for the police with a warrant or in chasing a criminal). It shouldn't be the government telling us to know our place, but us telling them, and the place for the government is in servitude to the people.
