But no, you can't have any of this money as wages. You can borrow some with this special loan called the "Venus fly trap".

Yep let's have some fiscal responsibility around here-lol-

The people least able to fend for themselves get punished. Old age pensioners are a favorite target.

Bricklayers, carpenters, and plumbers can get paid £80k to £100k per annum, in this penultimate phase of the property bubble. I'm seriously thinking of being a professional carpenter myself. The property bubble will collapse soon though, I think, just after I would become fully qualified. The "official statistics" show doctors earn the most pay at £50k. They pre pay their taxes though. It's easy to get a job in London fixing up the property of Judges, Lawyers, Bankers, Dentists, CEO's, CFO's and pay no taxes. Not sure if those guys are paying appropriate 17.5% VAT on the services either. I wouldn't know -g-

What a bunch on B/S the economy is.
