The United Kingdom is on a mission to cut spending. Taking the responsible path (unlike the U.S.) is not always easy though.
The proposed 83 billion pounds in spending cuts in the next four years will displace an estimated 500,000 public sector workers and sharply cut benefits for welfare recipients. Amazingly, even Queen Elizabeth II will take a cut to the royal household budget by 14%.
In defending the cuts, Treasury Chief George Osborne offered words of wisdom: “It is a hard road, but it leads to a better future.” Despite all the government programs and agencies that would take a hit under the new cuts Osborne said, “It would take time to turn around the debt supertanker.”
Unfortunately, while the Queen of England is cutting almost 1/6 of her royal budget for the sake of her country’s future, our President has decided to spend MORE in an effort to save some Democratic political careers in the short term (e.g., Monday’s announcement that President Obama will call for a $250 one-time payment for Social Security recipients to compensate for the lack of cost-of-living adjustments to the monthly checks despite inflation remaining flat).
Some might call that the “power of incumbency.” I call it vote buying.

Every email and website visited to be stored
Every email, phone call and website visit is to be recorded and stored after the Coalition Government revived controversial Big Brother snooping plans.
It will allow security services and the police to spy on the activities of every Briton who uses a phone or the internet. Moves to make every communications provider store details for at least a year will be unveiled later this year sparking fresh fears over a return of the surveillance state.
The plans were shelved by the Labour Government last December but the Home Office is now ready to revive them.
It comes despite the Coalition Agreement promised to “end the storage of internet and email records without good reason”.
Any suggestion of a central “super database” has been ruled out but the plans are expected to involve service providers storing all users details for a set period of time.
That will allow the security and police authorities to track every phone call, email, text message and website visit made by the public if they argue it is needed to tackle crime or terrorism.
