And why do you, and non sociopath skin, target Clegg? Is it that big Mail picture of him that has made you think that way? Are you that easily led?

"They'd obviously go after the "rich" first" - well, yes, that's what a tax on wealth above £2 million would be. dipsydoodle, are you really going to post a 'slippery slope' argument on DU that taxing the wealthy is the first step in taxing the bulk of the population in this way, and therefore must never be done?
