It was interesting to listen to a podcast that explored the role of the State. You probably already know my position on things like Lockdown and the over reach of the State in that. It goes back before that of course perhaps to the early 2000s maybe the financial crash of that time and it just goes on and on.
We now have politicians telling you how many drinks (containing sugar) you can and cannot have. They just continue to chip away at liberties and steal our money and tell us it is good for us! It is beginning to feel (to those of us awake enough) almost oppressive and I for one intend to start to ignore all of this and go and do my own thing. If you don't obey the orders or get around them, what are they going to do? It is meant to be Government by consent and I never consented to this nonsense and so that is my push back.
They want to control many (if not all) aspects of our lives but it's time we all pushed back and said no. Too many people are happy to be ordered around and told what to do. When I was managing programmes and projects it was amazing to me that so many otherwise highly intelligent people didn't actually know how to go about their jobs, they had to be told what to do, how to do it and when etc.
I see that they have whispered they may introduce pay per mile for electric vehicles. I imagine they'll use the onboard inter connectivity of the cars. I doubt they have sufficient cameras set up to do it across the country. Let's see if they do introduce it what the push back will be?
It's oppressive, if you let it be I suppose but it needs to be reigned in - we will see where the next budget leaves us. Being taxed until the pips squeak and on top of that monitored all the time must surely start the asleep to wake from their slumbers.
