It is perhaps not a question that we ask every day, or at all, since government has been for ever ingrained in our lives that we take its impertinence for granted.
But what is it good for, really?
Well, here's a list ...
- Wasting vast amounts of money on lost causes, such as the NHS, HS2, nuclear power stations, and government-mandated mega-projects in general
- Spending huge amounts of money on global hoaxes such as the Ukraine war ("Mad Bad Vlad must be stopped!") and (hopefully foreign but in extremis domestic) wars in general
- the Climate Catastrophe (made up to scare us into abandoning our standard of comfortable living)
- the Pandemic (that helped them (and helps them still) to reduce the population thus saving £squillions on old age pensions and the like, not to mention awarding their mates contracts for expensive but useless PPE sourced for peanuts from China)
- selling Munitions for illegal purposes described as "self defence" (although if we defended ourselves similarly we would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law)
- deploying ever more inventive ways to set us against each other ("divide and rule") on spurious grounds of race, sex, social class, colour, religion, incompatible cultures, or anything really, to ensure that we are forever arguing/fighting amongst ourselves rather than with "them"
- running rigged Political Parties (and if necessary Elections) to ensure that the controllers always stay in power whilst we are told that it's all our fault for "voting wrong"
- demanding taxes so that we pay for all of the above (and more ... ) whilst they return pennies on the pound in "benefits" to maintain the façade of benevolence.
Here's some more, good points all:
