f u could be anything could be funny usually man. Also a valid reply to your post. You just have to see the worst in everything don't you. Go eat a sea cucumber
IIRC the headline taxes are cheaper, but the local authority taxes are the killer - I knew a guy who was working in Finland paying their highest rate of income tax (30%) and living in the highest rate of communal tax (21%). So he ended up paying over 50% of his income when pension and healthcare stuff was included Tho' like you say for someone like you it will all come back in the savings on childcare etc. The guy I knew was single and earning loads so he was paying massively into the system but getting relatively little back out - as soon as you have kids or need to use the social services the Nordic system kicks in and you're laughing. Or rolling around in the snow like a knob end shouting "where are my slippers?" P.S. Nice pencil tache. Barry Neville would be proud...
I said f u, not you. Guys I think Gerrez has lost it and must as a result relinquish his mod status. He's wasted and hankering for Tesco burgers. Unless Tesco Burger is a euphemism for something else? Like that's ugly chick a few doors up from Gerrez, the one with the front butt
I think that snow has frozen your brain I absolutely want a Tesco burger, its just another animal! Only problem is, I hate the cheap economy bollox
You see that's the problem, getting nothing back, he may not get cash back but it contributes to everything not going to sh!t around him. Do You or I want to live in sh!t and bring our kids up in sh!t as long as we pay low taxes.? We know we don't Anywhere I've been was spotless. Public transport is excellent, parks and tracks fantastically maintained, the cost of maintaining a city in winter there must be fooking enormous, so your mate can drive his nice car. Also his kids wouldn't have to pay fk all when doing a degree. Your mate probably likes the underground heating in the city centre to keep the shops open. Free heating for people who just cannot afford it, someone has to do the low paying jobs even if everyone in the country has a degree or 5 degrees someone still needs to do those jobs, that;s worth considering in a social structure. Two elderly men died here in Ireland a few nights ago from exposure cos every benefit they got was cut by the scum government and the leccy costs are through the roof A ****ing crime, they were found huddled together in their home! Man, you get a lot back if you think about it, the money goes into the state unlike UK and Ireland. If you want to live in a nice socially responsible place with no junkies hanging around every corner, not to mention they build around nature rather than dig it up, so there is a hell of a lot of green, forest ect, wildlife and so on, who pays for that to not let it go to ****, the rivers like the Vantaa river near our apartment, which is totally safe to swim in, how many city rivers in the UK and Ireland would you have a swim in. You get a lot, I have to admit it you get a hell of a lot, just not in your bank account. For my kids this is the best choice for me. My son will get a far superior education compared to Ireland, which has just cut the bollox out of the education budget whilst UK and Irish governments raise college costs in order to exclude numbers from going. I'll be going back to uni for a few years, I am sick of IT, was a glazier before that and a landscape gardener before that. Journalism appeals to me cos I've always wanted to write a book, It won't cost me a penny to go either. I've got a seriously overactive imagination, which you yourself may have accused me of possibly
This is true - they actually put all their money into the state instead of dropping it on Iraq or throwing it at dead banks. I think a lot of that is also down to the population - Finland is larger than the UK with a tenth of the population, and it's a heck of a lot easier to keep green spaces and clean rivers when you don't have millions of people living next to them. I'd have thought it would also help with the crime and drug problems - much easier to avoid becoming a junkie when you aren't crammed next to millions of others. F u you evil Yankee debt monkey ruining our great football club I always figured it was just down to the constant drinking...
Its largely down to social responsibility and kept to high level by the state otherwise ye'd be constantly cleaning sh!t up. Ireland has a small pop. The place is in sh!t I see little playgrounds, with shovels and spades, buckets sleds and so on, all left neatly against the little wooden shed as no doubt the last people to use the stuff had put it all back, we know how long that sort of thing would last here. not very, even the shed would be dismantled and taken ffs. There is no **** mania, no barbed wire fences around schools. Land greed!! Everything is so more spaced, Ireland has a low population yet roads barely let two busses pass each other. Not so there. Lastly I'll say this. It is worth the tax to raise a family there cos it is just less expensive to educate and care for your children, healthcare dental all far far cheaper.
can't talk about state and local taxes in Finland. However, my danish friends assure me that whilst their taxes peak at 65%, by the time that they claim all of their allowances and rebates there is little difference to the rates of tax here - but they do seem to get a lot more for it!
I graduated here in the states from FU Furman university. Funny enough our main regional rivals had the abbreviation WC. Not sure which is worse. School had a chant "FU one time; FU two times; FU all the time." Urban legend is that the schools mascot in the early days was a "Christian knight." Yup... the furman university christian knights.
Ring fenced is not a term Irish and UK governments understand In Ireland the state are literally letting their school chums rob the fkn country. Ireland is one of the most corrupt countries in Europe. The entire ripoff is either state run or state regulated enterprises
