More Charges!!!

Why is it that working people seem to get attacked from every angle? I’ve read in the newspaper today that Britain’s main banks are preparing to introduce charges on some current accounts. I wonder which Mr Big Shot millionaire dreamt that one up. I really don’t know why I and every one else who can actually be bothered to contribute to society actually attempt to save money. We may as well just throw it all down the drain! What infuriates me even more about this is the fact that only yesterday all we heard about was a new initiative to get the long term unemployed back into work. The scheme, which includes jobseekers, receiving a free outfit and haircut for potential interviews, will of course all be courtesy of the tax payer. The truth of the matter is, people who work have to scrimp and save for everything they have, whereas those who don’t get everything given to them on a plate. From this point of view, with something or somebody waiting around every corner ready to squeeze every penny they can out of us, there is little wonder why so many seem reluctant to get a job.
