I notice that the media seemed absolutely obsessed with this new 50% tax rate on earnings over £150,000. I was wondering why suddenly, it appeared that a majority of the population were earning that. Then I realised that the media moguls are so concerned with the new tax rate, because it is they, and not the majority of the population who will have to pay this tax.
I have a new solution, in order to make it that the media acts for the people, all journalists and reporters should be put on the minimum wage. As at the moment, they just contribute to a cultural hegemony which serves the interest of the rich few over the toiling many.
