It also depends on how much the socks cost. There's a difference, apparently, if you spend a lot of money.....
Most people do seem to transition from left to right as they age. Explains who many tories/reform voters there are.
I don't know about most but I agree, as you age you can tend to become more conservative - with a small 'c'. You own your own home, don't need benefits and don't have the energy to 'change the world' although pictures in the media show plenty of oap's front and centre at just stop oil marches and the like.
Exactly. Have something protect something. Ignore the harm to others in doing so. It'd the way everywhere.
Yeah. I get a tax cut. Who cares if the NHS is underfunded? My house is paid for. who cares about people who cant afford one these days? Etc etc.
That's a cynical way of looking at it. You could say - a person came from a very poor background, worked hard all their life, paid their taxes, gave 10% of all income to charity, raised their children with good values and now they have jobs where they are making a difference in society and the person in their old age can sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labour without taking on the woes of the world.
