RETW, Lets not forget that Churchill was a conservative. Conservatism, liberalism, and socialism have somewhat different meanings in the UK than they do here. I think that when the super wealthy get the lions share of the benefits of a tax deduction, while the middle and working classes get a few crumbs that fall off the table onto the floor, something is wrong. Today CEOs average three hundred times the compensation of the people that actually work for the corporation. Thats over a two hundred percent rise since World War Two. To me, that kind of says who is really greedy in our society. I guess there was a need for words!
