Belly,

<it hurts to see low unemployment used as an excuse to raise interest rates, why? Belly

Because when more people have jobs and more disposable income it starts to drive spending and inflation up and the banks put interest rates up to try to keep inflation down. Historically when there is high unemployment interest rates come down because prices stay more stable.

Ok, so let's get some prospective here.

We have a system that is on 'overload' whereby there is simply not enough to go around and this is only going to get worse. Nobody can deny that!

So, we have four main groups of people.

Pensioners, most of whom have paid their dues.

Workers, most of whom pay taxes, which keep the wheels turning.

The unemployed, many of whom simply don't want to work, or, are of the opinion that they have paid their taxes so why can't they get some back.

Then we have the school aged kids.

So,think ten or twenty years from now and ask yourself a very important question.

Who, or which group are we going to stop paying here?

The answer is very obvious, isn't it!
