The PROBLEM is a socio-economic order rooted in man's animal nature, which allows the staggeringly unjust income differentials we are so familiar with (as just another "Insanity of Normality"). How many times the minimum wage do you, for example, take home? I don't expect an answer, but you see my point (and you, as far as I know, are not one of the really big earners). Added to which, your job comes with a lot of personal satisfaction and social status.

 

Please, don't misunderstand me and take offence: I'm not questioning your great value as a presenter, Jeremy, just your (and lots of other people's) "pecuniary value" in multiples of the minimum wage and the kind of society this helps create, along with the disruptive social and cultural changes associated with mass immigration. If we had fairer income differentials the natives would do the jobs that we have brought in millions of immigrants in to do instead.

 

Everyone with power and influence, or just in a privileged position, will talk about the problems we have until the cows come home, but will not consider any changes that might diminish their own privileges and advantages. That would be utterly contrary to our animal nature, which our economy, free-market capitalism, has developed and been honed to exploit and depend upon.
