Sounds good. However, I don't believe it will extend to any form of freedom of movement EU style. I think it's more about mutual recognition of skills and standards.
I like the idea that was recently floated about free movement between the UK, Canada, Australia and NZ It would work as all these countries have similar wealth, laws, institutions etc and as long as incoming people are given a status similar to what Kiwis enjoy in Australia (right to reside but not PR) could be an excellent move |

Yes, looks like Rudd has scotched any ideas of easier movement between AU and UK:

You could, but luxury isn't made by robots. You can never call it "hand made" and charge that premium to pay the British salaries.

That removes Lukes personal touch right there, and we all know he was a carpenter before he became a jedi, I may be getting confused
Well, he did call occupants of interplanetary craft... S |

I think it's more to do with inequality before the law than with wealth itself. Just to illustrate, politicians who use IHT like a hammer on the general public... and then wiggle out of it themselves like Milibrain and many others.
Personally I think that IHT is completely wrong, like being tax all over again simply because someone dies. And laws seems to cut into people's freedoms, like not being able to give your property away and for the new owner being able to do whatever they want with it: for example parents handing over a property to their kids and then living in it for free. The gov't says that you need to charge them rent or they'll treat the handover as non-existent, something which is ridiculous as you should be able to do WHATEVER you want with that property, including letting others live in it for free (especially family). |

Unfortunately we are not all the same. Some people like the freedom to choose their own destiny, while others like to take from those who have chosen the freedom path. |

Obviously not. However unless control and governance is maintain, the income inequality would explode. The GINI index should be kept to 30 or less.
Ignore Hope this helps |

Ignore Hope this helps "Chief executives of UK blue-chip companies enjoyed a median pay rise of 32pc last year, compared with a 2pc increase in workers' pay." "Leading UK company bosses now typically earn 129 times more – including pensions and bonuses – than their employees." I anticipate you and your mates will comment on how much they deserve it etc and miss the point about the degree of inequality which is getting greater as each year goes by. |
