Climate's gonna change, people gonna die or relocate, society will have to adapt, animals will die out

Why would you want this?

Why would you choose the 'it's goona suck' option?

The 'it's gonna suck' option is clearly tangible.

The 'It's gonna suck + people gonna die' Is something to be concerned about.

Your post doesn't make any sense and is full of straight forwards contradictions.

Submission + - 42 Artificial Intelligences Are Going Head to Head in 'Civilization V'

rossgneumann writes: The r/Civ subreddit is currently hosting a fascinating "Battle Royale" in the strategy game Civilization V, pitting 42 of the game's built-in, computer-controlled players against each other for world domination. The match is being played on the largest Earth-shaped map the game is capable of, with both civilizations that were included in the retail version of the game and custom, player-created civilizations that were modded into it after release.

Given that people on minimum wage get tax credits, benefit from health and education services they can't afford and generally make a net gain from the Government it's pretty clear that they aren't paying an equal share. Someone has to fund all of this and you seem to think it's that tiny pool of people on over ã100k.

If these people were paid properly then they would be paying their fair share.

At no point did I suggest that people earning over £100k should pay all taxes and that no-one else should pay tax so that's really a stupid fallacious argument.

slightly rich = starting from £100,000pa, rich = > £250k pa.

Again, the current government are already working to increase tax revenue from companies that try and siphon earnings overseas

What, by cutting HMRC staff? don't make me laugh, this gov't could of closed the tax deficit by closing loop holes and working with the EU et al to end tax avoidance.

If you think the British Conservative party are going to stop money from going into their rich mates pockets by dealing with tax avoidance then you are delusional.

Deal with pollution.

Hmm. More detail needed.

That's not complicated, if you want to know what pollution is, google it.

The rich would indeed resent being treated as a cash cow by the lazy, the ignorant and the stupid.

No, the rich want to take all of the money for themselves and are too stupid to understand that the economy grinds to a halt when they do that.

Put please do tell me how people on minimum wage are somehow capable of treating the rich like a 'cash cow'

Come one, explain that, is it like the trickle down effect, perhaps you could explain that too.

Raise minimum wage (=less benefits and more tax).
Tax the rich more.
Close tax loopholes.
Put an end to the double Irish.
Invest in high quality sustainable housing.
Deal with pollution.

No crazy spending or crazy borrowing necessary, but the rich and stupid wouldn't like those policies.

Those are policies that would lower the deficit, put people in work and give them a higher standard of living.

The Tories aren't screwing the poor? You are blind.

Funny, I was in a similar position, getting bad headaches a couple of times a week, I didn't believe in homeopathy but went to keep my mother happy. 2nd time lucky with the tablets, I went from 2 headaches a week to about 1 to 2 mild headaches a year!! I know it wasn't chemistry so I'm at a loss to explain.

If it works, what does it matter how it works, even if homeopathists are just good at getting people to psychosomatically heal themselves.
