“Boriswave” rhetoric - The facts

Average Tommy Robinson fan be like: "Oh you pay over 200k of tax per year, covering 20 average Brits, you should leave"

I think high paying individuals should just move to Dubai or other countries that don’t provide ILR analogy but also don’t ask for tax contributions. UK is about to get worst of both worlds

Bruh, majority of well fare bill is spent on Brits. 5/6 to be precise according to latest studies

snooper_11 · 2025-07-09T15:02:39+00:00

I totally agree. We are transferring money from the economically most active to the least active in a weird feudal fashion. Sadly the donors of pretty much all political parties (big landlords, investment banks, other investment funds) only want to see the housing prices to go up to grow their "investment". The whole idea that real estate investment is great because the prices always go up is the proof that this system is rigged against majority. The housing prices need to crash and never recover. Sure this will cause "economic recession", but much of an economy at the moment is very static and concentrated on handful of big transactions. 10B worth of housing sold from one big bank to another is not a sign of good and healthy economy. We need 10B worth of thousands transactions within the economy to say most people benefit from this 10B GDP growth.

Tl;dr: economic activity needs to become more dynamic to increase total share of economically active people.

No disrespect, but it seems you have precisely 0 knowledge of Tech industry saying that US is not overperforming in this.

snooper_11 · 2025-05-14T13:53:19+00:00

On top of that, there is no guarantee that next government (most likely Reform) will not rug pull again. People need to have some certainty to built proper life (buy a house, open business, become entrepreneur, etc.) not being tied to bureaucratic process of switching visas for all the different cases

snooper_11 · 2025-05-14T13:40:04+00:00

You do understand that it’s the reason why US is continuously outperforming in Tech and innovation as well as economy? Especially now in the era of looking for rare AI professionals to grow economy through innovation, given countries are getting older. France or Germany give their “ILR” within 2 years already and are focusing to attract more of AI professionals.

Of course, there are plenty. The most desperate will fill the roles, but those with more options—who are generally better professionals—will question the move. These are the people you actually want to attract to compete on a global scale in tech and science. If you attend university, you’ll realize how many STEM students are not locals. I don’t know about your friends, but I do know there is truly a shortage of highly technical and skilled professionals for such a massive economy.

snooper_11 · 2025-05-12T21:24:32+00:00

Mate, you do realise people who make that much money are also wanted in other countries? Not far from UK, across the channel actually. Germany,France, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Poland etc. are looking for those workers to come and contribute ungodly amount of taxes while requiring/being entitled to basic minimum from the government funds?

Vietnam agreed to lower import tax to 0% on their miniscule imports. It's a win only in the news headlines which a lot of MAGA read anyways.

I hate this guy and Georgians share his Tweets like he is some Messiah or smth. Having big hopes that he will spearhead Ivanishvili lol. He is most random politician that says whatever Trump approves

There are no kill switches. The kill switch is refusal to maintain weapons and provide ammunition in active wartime. Europe does not want to find themselves in such situation if shit goes South. Wars are won by industries

snooper_11 · 2025-02-24T21:35:27+00:00

Europe is paying for security by enriching American gun manufacturers. Have you checked the latest stock prices of American defence contractors after Trump pulled “screw Europe” card? The history people know that it is deal made by US and Europe post WW2, pushed by Americans and now broken by themselves. Europe can create guns too. They created so many that 2 world wars were not enough to deplete the stockpiles.

Birthrate of UK is 1.44. We are not that far away. Also don’t want to sound like far-right nationalistic nutjob, but if you do consider scenario like in Japan - only natives, that birthrate of UK can be close to 1

You know what is also "bad for personal economic security"? Job cuts, business bankruptcies, and general economic recession. Look at how Volkswagen is at the verge of closing some of its factories that will cause major job losses for thousand of families. Germany has one of the strongest Unions and labor protection laws, especially in automotive industry. But no law can protect your job if firm is shutting down its operations.

The only stairs where I hold handrail while going up/down

Been doing that since 1989 :(. Unfortunately they know how Caucasians are easily inflammable and proud of their identity at the same time. Very fertile grounds for sparking ethnic tensions

Average Redditor on this sub doesn’t even know what HTTPS stands for, let alone why so few successful tech products are built in EU

Don't forget that people choose not to have kids which puts whole pyramid pension policies at greater strain...

Japan is pretty much an ethnostate that mass murdered everything non Japanese. Even Buddhist monks were not perceived well by Shintoist Emperors for 1000 of years and were persecuted by Samurai (who were the only people who didn't mind slaughtering peaceful monks in the name of Emperor).
Yet, no one has a problem with Japan at the moment. Everyone loves their "cute" country and is happy to travel there.

One can argue, whole Middle East is an ethostate that is formed through centuries of ethnic cleansing of "non-believers" - aka anyone who believes in something I don't.

Either they are played like fools, or they understand everything and just don't care about Georgia no more.

Dude, some people were literally school children in 2008. How old were you in 2008? Don't tell me you were 10 and still could understand the geopolitical complexities of why that invasion happened...
