Let me get this very important observation straight for everyone
If you don't work you pay zero tax to this robbing government. Despite this you will still get a small state pension if you have 10 years NI contributions, which you can get if you claim child benefit (counted until your child is 12), universal credit or ESA and a variety of other welfare payments. Once you are at "retirement age", any shortfall between this small state pension and the governments minimum set weekly income level will then be met by pension credit which is purely means tested and not NI based and which means that you will get a maximum of £218.15 if you're single. The full state pension is currently only £225 per week per person, which you only get after 35 years of NI contributions. So working all your life gives you £7 more a week
If you decide to work, not only do you have to PAY to get to work, either exorbitant train, bus or fuel costs, but you also have to PAY the government for the pleasure, by giving them around 32% of your wages at source, in the form of what they call "taxes". You actually pay the government for getting off your arse and working 😂😂 Then the government also thinks it can steal part of any modest capital you might have accrued, through inheritance and capital gains tax, the former also to be charged on your private pension now, the pension that you probably sweated to save into whilst being robbed by the government in taxes taken, because you chose not to lay around at home all day. All so you can get £7 extra a week in state pension and taxed on your private pension and any modest capital you've accrued in the slave system
The government actually penalise you for getting up and working 40 or more hours a week. They charge you, and then spend your money on wars and laundering schemes which benefit them and their mates, all the while calling you a domestic terrorist for saying someone born with a penis is a biological man
Why on earth is anyone still striving to earn above the income tax allowance, or working at all, once they realise the above? It boggles the mind
It's called slavery folks
