Inheritance tax should be 100%.
The logical extreme of this would be state farming of children so that no one gains anything through an accident of birth

Think we've already seen the logical conclusion of this

People who go to watch darts and sing inane songs and barely watch any of the sport should be tagged, and a list of their names circulated to warn other members of society that they are in their midst.
Also people who go racing on Saturdays and spend the entire afternoon at the bar. And then cause trouble.
WTF is the point? Why don't they just save the £25 entrance money and go down the pub?
Going racing at weekends is horrendous, haven't been in 10 years or more.
One good thing about this i found was renting my uttox members badge to a friend who was desperate to go to the live music night with his mates who already had tickets when the human league was on this year and it was fully sold out and couldn't get a ticket for twice the face value of the ticket when i had no interest in going anyway. The tickets for these 'lolracedays' are the most expensive of the year even though the racing is garbage. Certainly makes my annual members fee a lot cheaper.
Xmas party race day at Uttox tomorrow should be total carnage with once a year piss heads donking around the betting ring covering people in fosters whilst getting their £2.50 ew on.
Must start charging my friends whenever they borrow something. I'll explain it's the value to them, not what it is going to cost me (zero), that I'm charging for.
I know someone who if he gives someone a lift home charges them petrol money, even though the person they are giving a ride to lives on the route they are already going on.
Baffling.

Yeah I know quite a few people who do this, including one chap who asked for money for a lift two months later because he forgot to at the time. He also always tries to get us to but Amway type stuff. And his wedding was bring your own booze. Bless him.

Blonde has become a forum full of people who would argue over the colour of the sky.
95 % of the posts are someone's unpopular opinions, did we really need this one as encouragement?
Seemed like a good idea to me, a kind of arsehole containment thread....
Let's just sneak away now Eck, and hope no one noticed us

With respect my mate offered to pay me double because he couldn't think of any other way to get a ticket and assumed I would be going as a member. I wouldn't dream of asking for double the price plus he isn't a close friend and you have to factor in risk of the badge not returning! Can never be too careful

Haha, could be a rich vein:
Cords are cool
Grown men look good in sportswear
It's perfectly normal to visit the cinema 6 times a week
Koi are the perfect pets
We are naturally fitter, stronger, healthier on a narrow diet of Crazy Chicken and Kabobs
Bit busy at the mo planning my response to so much of this thread but pretty sure I'll be back later

1. Golf I just don't get it. Its shite to play, watch or gamble on.
2. People who sing 'Stand up if you love the darts'. It is the absolute worst sporting chant, it makes me twitch like I have tourette's everytime I hear it.
3. Musicals. No need to justify this one I think.

What % rate for IHT would you think is fair and what level would be Socialistic ?

Don't even know the rate today tbh and no clue what it forms of the total tax take. But in principle, I believe it should be pretty low. When you leave an inheritance it's already a nett number after a life time of being taxed and probably having contributed more than average since you have some left. Feels slightly unfair to take another slice on death.
