UK Proposes All Paychecks Go to the State First....
CNBC ^ | Sep 20th, 2010

Posted on 09/21/2010 9:51:34 AM PDT by TaraP

The UK's tax collection agency is putting forth a proposal that all employers send employee paychecks to the government, after which the government would deduct what it deems as the appropriate tax and pay the employees by bank transfer.

The proposal by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) stresses the need for employers to provide real-time information to the government so that it can monitor all payments and make a better assessment of whether the correct tax is being paid.

Currently employers withhold tax and pay the government, providing information at the end of the year, a system know as Pay as You Earn (PAYE). There is no option for those employees to refuse withholding and individually file a tax return at the end of the year.

If the real-time information plan works, it further proposes that employers hand over employee salaries to the government first.

So private employers will basically contract with the government for employees.

Nope. It's by plan. But the workers are insane if they don't revolt.

My boss is a fellow freeper. When this headline showed up here yesterday, we discussed it. I told him that if they ever pull that crap here, I’ll quit.

It will be time to quit pulling the wagon in exchange for an allowance from “my betters”.

This almost reads like satire but it’s the inevitable result of socialism. A clear warning to Americans of what their future holds unless we dump the Democrats and their Marxist agenda. November 2nd may be America’s last chance to do so. I’m cautiously optimistic.

They gave up that option when they voluntarily surrendered their guns to their government.

At what point will people acknowledge that a revolution is needed?

If not this, then what?

It tainted it for me, too.

FWIW, the article somehow smacks of BS.
