where's bullshit man when u need him!??
yeah, and communist/socialist countries can boast brilliant working conditions....
typical childish anti-capitalist bollocks on this forum as per usual. Feels like your in some A-Level sociology class sometimes on here.Apple wasn't a perfect company but it enhanced the lives of millions around the world. this can't be argued. Steve Jobs RIP
Must admit I skimmed it
Though I do recall figures of up to 60+% on the real tax rate on low earners when u consider all taxes -direct & indirect. Such an apathetic lazy society we live in.

Most people can keep just 27p in every £1 they earn in the UK, YET we wonder why people aren't as charitable as they could be. All that tax and the UK is hardly a haven of love and glory. All this big government big tax ideology ... where has it got us? Bankrupt and a bunch of charitable douches

The hunger crisis and cancer won't be solved by money either. There are politics, subisidies, diets, lifestyles that all have just a big effect.
The fact MS can not be cured means charitable donations is more than more worthy. Cancer can be prevented or at least tackled with better diets and lifestyles (which costs nothing), and the hunger crisis is as much a political issue regarding farm subsidies etc... than it is a charitable one. If the MS Trust helps something that isn't curable (is it not, I don't know?) than that's worthy to donate to help people.
Every cause has its merits. You can't say one is more worthy than the other. For society to function you need philanthropic diversity.

So if you could keep more of your own money, the proportion of your wealth you would give to charity would reduce? Odd stance.
Are you seriously that naive to believe there is no ulterior motive? All the richest are asking for is a higher price for entry to the rich club. They already have their mass of wealth and assets, so paying a bit more tax won't really effect them as they have systems to evade it anyway. Who it will effect is those trying to aspire to that level of wealth. Those who are not backed up by billions in the bank and assets. Those who can't afford to evade the tax man. The rich don't want to share power.
It's quite common for tax revenues to go up when taxes are deduced, and as people have more money in their pocket they tend to be more charitable. The whole 'Buffet tax' idea works in the opposite direction and is about power and control.
This religious belief in high taxation for the better of society, is not just naive.... but scary.

Typical lefties Becky, not a charitable bone in their body because Mr State is there to tax everyone else and pay for everything until everyone is poor hehe
Anyway, I £5 donated to MS Trust. Better than nowt

There are plenty of lower tax & more libertarian countries that obliterate us on infrastructure and healthcare. Don't believe the Guardian 'punish the rich' hype.
Lower taxes breeds greater charity. It's an almost set in stone fact those who are taxed less are more likely to donate to good causes.
Either way, don't expect people to be charitable when they are taxed through the teeth.
If we didn't have to taxes on everything then maybe donations wouldn't be such an issue
The mad thing about Aus '09 was that he would have been perfectly within his rights to keep that position after Trulli drove off the circuit. How they screwed that up i do not know.
Senna had quite a lot of haters when he raced. The only difference was the internet didn't exist when he raced, hence history has clouded how many drivers/fans actually disliked him. Again, people forgetting their F1 history.
The fact is F1 is about the car yet still we get into these long pointless debates about drivers. Stick Hamilton in the RB5-RB7 and he'd have won 4 titles now and we'd all be in awe of his speed and consistency. Same could be said for other drivers. Christ, even Webber came within an inch of becoming an F1 WDC.
The sooner we get a grip on the fact F1 is a design competition above and beyond anything else, the better.

No, sure he doesn't 'turn in' on people apart from when he was disqualified from the championship for this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB3_UUyzEZQ
Some people really don't know their F1 history. He got away with it in Adelade... but couldn't repeat it in Jerez 97.
Do you believe in fairies? Because that's no different in believing in government led economic stimulus. The last round of money printing stimulus (aka tax via inflation) has led us up even more debt shit street.
Hamilton needs to dump his bird, stop eating shit sweets and fix up generally if he wants to win titles again.
hehe you're not unusual. I get that. Sometimes it flows gently and other times after maybe a stressful computer day it's a bit more harsh.
Webber is the only real person at fault as he is the only guy who has had a car all season that can challenge for the WDC. Other than that you can only praise Newey's continual genius.
Don't stare at your floaters because you'll notice other visual phenomena. I see lights and a whole plethora of things (after images etc...) if I go on floater watch. Sends you mental
Who cares about messing other drivers laps up, that's part of the game.
Yep floaters are pretty common. People see small type cells to full-blown worm type things floating about.
It appears to be a marmite film. Though I was a bit in the middle. One moment it was a serious 'adult' film and the next a kids action movies. Very odd.

Getting the world champs next year too I disagree. Didn't really do much for me. Audio completely out of sinc, and most of the audio was poor. I think it's a stretch to call it a documentary. it's a collection of clips to cement the myth of Senna. Which was unfair to him and his fans because it doesn't present the truth. What was presented was a heavily biased representation of the truth.
The clips of karting were good though

very odd.Kinda stupid viewpoint. Had he not complained and kept cool he wouldn't have seen the Honda's pegged back. He did exactly the right thing by moaning and complaining.
However he is still a dumbass for using the term p*key.
