But morally the whole concept of royality is.... horrible isn’t it?
Hmm...
Let's think about that just for a minute.
She has no official powers. She's a figure head that spreads diplomacy and is very much a well recognised export of the UK around the world.
But, forget all that and get down to the nitty gritty.
People are annoyed that she was born into wealth, land, position etc etc.
Are the also annoyed with Paris Hilton?
She was born into wealth, land, businesses with massive tax breaks etc etc etc.
Or is it that people are annoyed that they get "our tax money"?
Well okay, so 'the queen' voluntarily pays n millions and gets a smal portion back. With that small portion of her money she pays for upkeep and running of the crown estate. So if she wasn't there, who pays for the crown estate to be kept up? The tax payer... The tax payer that would pay private companies to secure buck house, private companies to repair buck house etc etc. Multiplied by however.many properties crown estate holds.
Oh but maybe we should get rid of the crown estate? Maybe.. so buck house is gone.. it's bulldozed and is now flats for the Londoners. Millions of tourists now flock to see Brian Lovegood change his pants at 198B Buckingham Towers instead of the Changing of The Guards at a world famous landmark.
Or.maybe it's the actual position the queen holds? Living life in luxury, never knowing real hunger, poverty etc etc.
Well okay but now actually look at her life. You reckon old Liz can pop down the local in her PJs to drag old Phil back home cause he's one too many and he's chatting up the new barmaid again? Or is her life under the microscope and watchful eye of every media outlet on the planet? You think that would be a nice way to live? Every word uttered is scrutinized. Every action or no action is reported on and judged. Hell, even how she holds her handbag is national news. Let's not forget that she has also been working daily for an immense amount of years and can only stop.if she drops dead. Yeah, sound cushy as fuck, sign me.. but before you volunteer, go check her travel schedule and diary for the last couple years and then tell me you want to be doing that at her age. Fuck no.
So what is it that bothers people about the queen and the royals?
The money they inherited? So people that inherit wealth are bad?
The fact they get some money back to run the crown estate and pay for royal duties? So you want them scrapped and private companies to take over and end up costing far more?
Is it their lifestyle? Under immense pressure of scrutiny from every corner and every angle no matter where they go or what they do? Meghan and whotsherface can't even wear the same dress twice without some shitrag bitching about it.
The queen working daily for decades? Travelling endlessly to spread democracy and earning the good will of others toward our country?
I don't get it? Surely, logically, people can understand that the monarchy is a positive to the country when all is said and done? Is it just misguided, uneducated jealousy that makes people not like them?
