As far as I'm aware, the only people likely to lose their jobs in this cutback are the managers who spend their days photocopying their arse rather than doing any real work; all 500,000 of them.

Why are we worrying about the effect on the rest of us?

Another one of these threads? Managers actually do work for your information, this stereotype of civil servants are so ridiculous. Look into a job before making such an ignorant generalisations.

You're just very bitter because of what happened to your family, which is sad, but seriously, son't take it out on everyone else.

Fail at not knowing what managers actually do in their jobs.

Which it does. Where would we be without the blood of the workers? Britain is only where it is in the world today due to the mass exploitation of the industrial revolution, the slave trade and the banking system which those at the bottom, those who never shared in the wealth it bestowed upon the bourgeoisie, are now having to pay to prop up.

Would you rather the UK was still a third world country?

I would rather the wealth which has been generated through the sweat and toil of many of the poorest members of our society was spread around so that all may profit from their labour.

Lets see, my mum, public sector worker, research council. Low priority in public spending so she's fearing for her job.
The company my dad works for gets a lot of it's business from council contracts, they are a quality based company, without those council contracts they have no major reason to stay open in the UK and will probably end up setting up shop in europe and focusing on amercia. Another good manufacturing firm destroy by tory idiocy.

I don't believe the state owes me a living, ask anyone on this forum, I think as soon as you're 16 you should take responsibility, get a job and stop taking your parents money. I work more hours a week on average than most full time workers, with a chronic pain problem. And still attend full time education.
I believe our government owes the people a duty of care, they are only looking at the monetary side of things and booming in without a care in the world about the people, the mass disruption and destruction of peoples lives they will cause.

As usual with the tories, they think everyone has money in the bank, my parents certainly don't. They've worked hard to buy their own house and support my sister and me growing up. When I was a right little kid they were both working 70 hours a week to make ends meet. And they don't have a lot in life, an average house and a couple of run down old cars, in debt, savings depleted from all the crap thats happened and now my mum is very likely to lose her job, my dad has a chance of losing his job too.

******* tory scum, people forget to soon. Thatcher 2.0, they ****** my family last time and they're doing it again.

People should get what they work for, wealth shouldn't be greatly distributed.

That sucks, I think too much is being taken from the public sector. For once, I agree with you.

I don't agree with your points, but you are consistant.

I believe our government owes the people a duty of care, they are only looking at the monetary side of things and booming in without a care in the world about the people, the mass disruption and destruction of peoples lives they will cause.
Other things should be cut first rather than the public sector jobs, I partially agree here, not completely.

As usual with the tories, they think everyone has money in the bank, my parents certainly don't.
Some do, some don't. And people won't want to use that money so it won't help that much.

They've worked hard to buy their own house and support my sister and me growing up. When I was a right little kid they were both working 70 hours a week to make ends meet.

The last sentence makes that really bitter.

But, alas, that is the paradox of capitalism! Capitalists always argue that their system is somehow fairer because you get out what you put in. However, this is simply not true. The entire system is built on the exploitation of those at the bottom, who work hardest in order to pad the pockets of the owners of the means of production at the top, who contribute comparatively very little to the system. Those that work hardest, in the most vital jobs, get paid the least; the workers in the factories, the social workers, the nurses - without whom the entire system would collapse. Talk about hypocritical...

Not true at all. You have to be more educated to do the jobs at the top, they're more mentally demanding, hence it being fairer. In capitalism, at least we have the chance of being rich or poor. Also, people are inequal, so making it equal a) wouldn't work, and b) would damage the economy so severely.
