I'll feel a guilty conscience grow
May. 12th, 2010 12:07 pmLooking at the coalition outcomes - I can't help but feel guilty.
Basically, everything that I would benefit from personally, the government is planning to do.
I'm married. I earn an above-average but not collossal salary. I'm not involved in the banking industry or speculative investment. We get the start of electoral and constitutional reform. I'm native to this country. I'm no longer at school and don't intend to have children. I supported nuclear power anyway. I like my civil liberties.
But some horrible things are still going through, which will hurt my friends, people of my tribe.
The welfare 'reforms'. The 'signal' of the marriage tax allowance.
So even though I have no particular responsibility for any of this, and it is probably the best that anyone could have expected to come out of this - I feel guilty.
