Pinoy Hangout Thread v. 16

[Paper]

And we're an actual democracy?

 

[Imperium]

Is there a country with an actual democracy?

 

[hunter71485]

dude we're so democratic we're useless.

remember the media's contribution in the tourist bus hostage taking?

 

[Paper]

Idiocy is different from democracy. We're being controlled by greedy-self righteous little men who use the self-important media whores as catalysts.

 

[hunter71485]

it's not ideal democracy, but nevertheless it is still democracy.

just like china not being ideal communists but being maoists.

 

[baboysai]

whatever, man.

manny knows.

oh yeah!!!!

 

[hunter71485]

unanimous decision.

once again, congratulations goes to Manny Pacquiao for making the whole country stop on its tracks

 

[baboysai]

the zero crimerate was broken. Some thief broke into a pawnshop while everyone else was glued to the tube.

How dare he taint the sacred manny match???

 

[Imperium]

There was a big boxing match over here too, well...it you couldnt really call it a match. >_>;

 

[kuroihikari]

Hey, Imp, crazy how we were just talking about tuition the other week, and then I saw on the news that student protests on tuition are getting violent.

So, how many conservatives have you hurt today? .

 

[Imperium]

I would have gone to (peacefully >.>) protest, but I couldn't get a ride down to London. I could speak at length about just how much this current government incenses me, but i shall keep it short.

The current coalition we have holds the majority of the country in contempt. They slash and squeeze the poor and smile their Eton smiles and say "we're in this together". Its ridiculous, Big companies pay stupidly low taxes against the law! Vodafone for example, recently paid a little less than 1bn on a 7bn tax bill! They cut funding to universities, increase tuition fees, cut welfare to the poorest and most needy. The people who will shoulder the biggest burden for the fuck up of corporate bankers are the poorest 10% of the country. Just some stats:

Spoiler

£1bn Annual revenue raised from 2013 by scrapping child benefit (welfare to child rearing families) where one householder earns over £44000

£2bn Annual revenue given away from 2013 in corporation tax cut for companies earning over £350,000

£5m Savings to be made by cancelling Department of Climate Change grants schemes by "greenest government ever"

£10m Amount paid in "resettlement" grants to MPs who left the Commons at general election (failed to get voted back in)

What really angers me though, really really fucking pisses me off are the Liberal Democrats. Turncoat lying shits doesnt even begin to describe them. Tuition fee's are just a small part of a larger problem.

[baboysai]

hunt, why do you have exams in november?

 

[hunter71485]

I'm trimester, sadly. I don't graduate 'til December.

I'm loving my new touchscreen 5MP phone.

 

[Imperium]

You people and your smart phones. Yea well i have a phone thats been through hell and back, your touch screen doesnt have half the balls my normal samsung does (metaphorically).

@Bbb - I sense sarcasm...

 

[hunter71485]

well I got a phone that's been to hell and back and hell again.

Right now it's enjoying its jihadist reward in extremist heaven (virgin SIMs)

 

[baboysai]

Aaaargh Sunday Filipino TV is killing meeeeeh!

[hunter71485]

[Imperium]
