I'll work it out for him on my way to Mars.

That makes me want to volunteer to be on the first manned space-ship to Mars and leave all you nut-cases to wallow in the unreal world you seek to create. I'll wait until 90 though - not completely daft.

But I still find them amusing - they know how to look after money as well... they have no shame.

Well at least with them there is some money to be parted from.

That I like - good observation and very simple - even I can understand that. And from that knowledge make the right decision.

and the meaning of life itself - I suspect.

Too serious, I, nor anyone else, needs to know 'how' to do everything, we pay others to do that and give us the information we need to make meaningful decisions. That's the secret to these guys that get educated in Eton, they know that. To get back on subject just because you know something in...

I too went to school, but I must admit that I took a break when girls came on the scene - you must have missed a lot with your nose stuck in a maths book.

To use your own figures. 90% is a lot higher than 75% and still rising last time I looked. You seem to think / suggest that we could spend (borrow) even more to get out of this spiral?

Certainly recognise that at least one of the Stage Coach pair lives in a very tidy pile (Castle) just outside Perth. As for the rest I don't know but doubt it is as you say. Sounds more like mischief and envy to me. I have little doubt that much of it, revenue, will have been wasted in one form...

This is good read or at least I believe so...

Seems everyone has gone to bed, either that or I have silenced you. Good night!

I bring optimism to the table - how about you OG?

Possibly, but I don't (currently) think so. Greece for one doesn't have a good reputation for collecting tax and neither does Italy This might help,unless you choose to rearrange the letters, and the numbers A study quoted by the IMF suggests that between 1999 and 2010 the shadow economy in...

If mine is coloured how about yours? Do you really think that the easy life is for all - no place for aspiration or failure?

Some sense at last on here - as Jacob would say.
