Poverty, excessive taxes, regulation and fines for non compliance, loss of freedom and access to jobs lead to the biggest shortening of life span and quality of life. We live in a technological 21st Century society that has risks and is motorised. The oppressive use of risk mitigation under ‘its for the good of the people’ banner becomes a type of communist control with associated loss of freedom. Every proposal must comply with the following standard: Is it necessary, lawful, proportionate and accountable? Capitalism produces wealth and raises every-bodies standard of living. Education should focus on producing skilled trade-persons.
