For instance, lets say a child care company operates a number of childcare facilities. It is a money making venture, set up to make money.
Now lets say that there is a community run childcare centre, which is run to provide a service, run by volunteers, non-profit.
Should they be fored to pay the same hypothetical childcare tax system, based on how many children they look after, how frequently, no matter what their income is?
If it wasn't for 'pirate' radio, things would be a lot different, without a doubt. |
Eh? By those examples the community one would be subsidised by the government, so it's not a valid comparisson. Maybe internet radio should be subsidised too. A lot of internet broadcasters aren't non-profit, in fact there are probably more profit making internet broadcasters than non-profit.
If you want to get hypothetical: I pay National Insurance every month from my wages. I haven't been to the doctors in years yet i pay more than a junkie who is there every week for all sorts of 'treatments'. Is that fair?
