The protests have now spread to other cities, with violence reported in parts of Birmingham, Liverpool and Bristol.

My favorite is the minimum wage. Why not make it $200 an hour and we’ll all be rich!
“The people of England, make the future of England.”
Apparently that is what they are trying to do, in England as well as in Spain, Egypt, Tunisia, Red China...
I wish people here would be more “involved”.
Gosh, Drudge, it’s almost as if it’s a concerted act to overthrow all the governments in the world and replace them with something else, under the guise of economic reform. Way to cover the news.
The media is cheerleading this.
They want riots and lots of them.
Gets people to tune in and watch their stations.
The media agrees with the looters and rioters.
And the media thinks they will walk away with clean hands on this.
Big mistake.
They really don’t know what they are wishing for.
I have my own set of counter demands:
1. Automatic 1 year hard labor for all caught looting.
2. Those who drop out of basic education before completing the equivalent of high school are required to pay the country back an amount that covers their earlier education expenses, unless they can pass an equivalency test.
3. All are required to pay some tax, even those in the lowest brackets.
4. Privatize anything that can be privatized.
5. Let employers decide the minimum wage, but at the same time levy large fines on any business that hires illegal immigrants or that breaks child labor laws.
6. Enshrine the right of individuals to distinguish themselves through their own honest hard work, ingenuity, and efforts, and guarantee their right to the profits from their efforts.
I’m sure there’s much more we could add.
Is an excellent ale, and Zero is definitely NOT worthy.
Oh yes, it’s a perfect time. :P
I should have said black Muxlims. they are texting all over England for more muslim rioting. unfortunately some of Englands yobs decided to join in.
