So today I hear the last straw on the TV, companies like Cadbury are going to reduce the calories in their foods.
How are they to do this I wonder 
could it be that yet again they will reduce the size of the product while maintaining the same price?, just as Pringles have less in them, tins of cola have less in them, wagon wheels are more like pram wheels and so on.
And this after the introduction of yet another tax on booze and the news that companies will be reducing the amount of alcohol in their products, notice the words reduce rather then launch new lower versions to be sold alongside the existing ones, yet another case of trying to get more money out of people, as they know people will just buy more if the percentage is less.
This of course on top of the all ready high tax on booze and fags (and petrol) and the takeaway tax on hot snacks they have just created to go along with the Vat all ready on things like cakes.
I'm sick of it, I'm sick of being treated like a fucking idiot, I'm sick of companies and the government insulting my intelligence by hiding their greed behind the false flag of public health.
We all know smoking is bad for you as is drinking and driving everywhere (which is all so bad for the environment), but smokers and drinkers all ready pay tax that goes to the NHS, Drivers all ready pay road tax why should they pay more tax?, the government is just a dealer pushing up the price because it knows the people are addicts and will not stop, and drivers will continue to drive.
I'm sick of it, the majority are not fools and don't need the government pricing them out of things, if people want to eat cake all day until they are so fat they can't leave their homes so be it, thats their own fault, leave them to it, it's called freedom and it's something we are all meant to have in this country.
