In a perfect world I would want the poor to aspire to become rich and not the rich to become poor to form a better society.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s wrong with the mood of the Nation today?\u00a0 The politics of envy is in the ascendancy and \u2018kicking the rich\u2019 seems to be a popular sport.\u00a0 What has happened to aspiration?<\/p>\n
How do we get a fairer society?\u00a0 I would argue by a good dose of \u2018caring\u2019 Capitalism.\u00a0 We need Capitalism to provide the entrepreneurial environment that allows more people to take charge of their destiny, improve their living standards and to aspire high instead of being envious of \u2018the haves\u2019.<\/p>\n
There will always be inequality in all societies and you don\u2019t make a better environment by attacking \u2018the haves\u2019.<\/p>\n
I will concede that for those genuinely under-privileged, who needs help, should get it in full measure and this is where the \u2018caring\u2019 Capitalism comes in.<\/p>\n
Socialists need the Capitalists to make the money for them to spend.\u00a0 More spending means that you are mortgaging tomorrow\u2019s future and eventually you will come unstuck.<\/p>\n
The two \u2018Ed\u2019s\u2019 and their \u2018merry men\u2019 are \u2018fanning the flames\u2019 of envy by their every reference to the Conservative Party. I\u2019m not sure that this is a helpful culture from which to build society.<\/p>\n
Lets get over this issue and aspire as high as we dare.\u00a0 One is only limited by ones own imagination!<\/p>\n
