Re: Why do we pay tax when out of area????
Not to sound like a right wing capitalist (I am), but little johnny can go swivel. I'll gladly pay for his education (though, doubtless the little sh*t is truent, dim and on emphetamines) when I'm domicile in the kingdom. When I'm abroad though (for a considerable length of time, I'll submit) I don't think I should be paying into a system whereby I'm recieving nil return, ie., health, transport etc.
To put a different (less grown up spin on it) if everyone else (Canucks, Aussies, Spams, et al) aren't paying, why are we? What's their take on it? It's not fair! *I'll fetch my hanky*
Oh and if you think that the benefit is that we get paid then I put it to you that we are self employed. As such, I reckon next time we invade a country we do it on our terms. I, for one, will be invading Bermuda. You're all welcome to help.
