    Affordable Housing

    Dear Editor

    By omitting the cost of having somewhere to live, out of the cost of living and therefore not allowing that item to be reflected in the rate of inflation, enables the Treasury to use the borrowing of money, with enormous profit. Shoving inheritance tax through the roof, getting vast, vast quantities of credit laundered into money and preserving Gordon Brown's favourites swindle, of forcing the punters to borrow new money into existence, as a source of additional revenue.

    The creation of commercial warfare by making Fair Trading no longer financially viable, is the hidden cause of terrorism, the cause of global-warming and the cause of global poverty, alongside the obscenity of global obesity.

    The need for monetary reform is screaming at us and we remain as deaf as a post.

    Time for a wake up call, let that wake up call come from us and not from suicide bombers.
