David Cameron on executive pay and UK economy, part1/2 (08Jan12)

Part 1 of 2: In first big interview of the year, PM David Cameron is asked about a range of issues. Marr completely losing it with a soft interview of all guests of the day.

It's strange how David Cameron and other politicians want to interfere in the PRIVATE sector pay, but the private sector taxpayers that pay for the public sector has NO right to say ANYTHING about the pay and perks of the 650 MPs, or the local council executives pay and perks. Once again the public sector gives two fingers to the private sector - you pay, while they carry ripping you off.

If a private company pays too much, the company will collapse. If the public sector pays itself too much, it just increases the taxes on the private sector. The politics of envy from the public sector.

The uk is obviously having problems as all unemployed on doll are being paid alot later. So obviously the government is looking for every possible way not to pay people. We are heading into depression.. Second half of 2012 i say. Ahwell to hell with everything. Let it collapse .. Pfft. Shame they hold all our food. The REAL food of the world and not the slave food we get force fed. These men are fake. They're just behind false meanings. They are all talk.

I have yet to decide on my opinion of you,if in fact I even have an opinion of you...Do you get alot of grief from your country?Why do you think some people consider you a hypocrit?hhhmmm,given my track record with your past prime ministers I am a slight bit trepid about listening to you...Then again I felt the same way with William Hague until of course he sincerely apologized to me...Plus I kind of like the way he walks...Be careful for that Obama,I hear he is somewhat bossy...Good Day...

Its not about taxing the rich.its about not taxing anyone so we can all spend our money in a free enterprise society.Similar to Ron Pauls message.Government should not tell businesses how much they can pay there employees and we should not have to pay income tax to government.He is right about cuts, government is broke, we need a free market economy.We need a small government that moves out of the way and leaves us alone.Remove cctv Back to our bill of rights and constitution

And ADMITTING that the government can't stimulate the economy because they don't have the money to do it?

Holy shit...I think this guy just earned himself a spot on my top 10 reasonable politicians of our time list..

I really don't see why people hate Cameron right now...his message is pretty consistent with addressing the corruption in big business and big government right now, he's talking about chrony capitalism, the source of most of our problems right now.

You won't hear this kind of talk in Washington...

[utubemaster047]

Cameron is spot on for once. They need to broadcast this video outside St. Paul's, spell it out if the protestors don't understand, hope that all the protestors are rational, and CLEAR THESE GUYS OFF OUR STREETS

British has a capital B. Start with that.

[SOCIALISTnetwork]

BOLLOCKS! What he is talking about happens already.CEO's are hired by the shareholders and are given bonuses if they keep costs down and ensure "ringfenced dividends" which will be achieved either by Profit or redundancies.The Capitalist always wins by hook or crook. And just as the flame burns out, they sell up and the whole fandango gets danced around again and again.
