Adam Dalliance<p>Watched BBC Question Time since Gary Stephenson was on it. He's great of course.</p><p>Everyone else is exactly the same as why I stopped watching. The panel filled with pompous bootlickers and wankers who defend the status quo and the rich, even as they attack each other.</p><p>The audience full of barely coherent idiots whose questions miss the point where they make any sense at all.</p><p>The panel other than him is unanimous that Wealth Taxes can't work because they've been tried in some places, and those places then stop trying after a while.</p><p>I mean the obvious reason for that is that wealth taxes affect the rich and the rich run the country, so they stop those policies that effectively reduce their wealth.</p><p>Strange to jump to the conclusion that it's because they're ineffective.</p><p><a href="https://boing.world/tags/bbcqt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bbcqt</span></a> <a href="https://boing.world/tags/watching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>watching</span></a> <a href="https://boing.world/tags/ukpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukpol</span></a></p>
