The Grinding Square Wheels of
Bureaucracy - What is it with the United Kingdom at the
moment? It currently provides numerous examples of what can and
does go wrong in modern western 'democracies' at their worst. This
article contrasts the differing philosophies of the private business
world in contrast to the taxpayer funded public sector. The
latter not being equipped with a simple measure such as profit, can grow
uncontrollably to the point of achieving the exact opposite of their
original intention. The United Kingdom's HM Revenue and Customs
tax collection department provides numerous examples of an out of
control bureaucracy.

serving in the Royal Navy. This work won a national Royal Navy

Why Is UK Tax So Taxing?
- Another article starring the United Kingdom's tax collecting
bureaucracy HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC formerly Inland Revenue).
There is so much material available with this out of control department,
a massive preening had to be done to keep this article down to a
reasonable length. Serious questions are asked of a department
that appears to treat taxpayers as criminals, including unreasonable
threatening, bullying, and harassment tactics. Bizarrely the
current UK government appears to have an agenda to penalise and if
possible criminalise as much of the hard working tax paying population
as possible; whilst rewarding shirkers, illegal migrants, criminals,
select politically correct 'minorities', the feckless, and long term
welfare claimants.
