I think the problem is people cant get out of poverty. When there's not enough jobs to go round there's always someone who's going to be out work whether people are educated or not. When wages are low and you aren't qualified for anything better there nothing you can do but work for nothing.

As far as society goes i agree. Peoples will watch the news about how a new drug for cancer isn't available on the NHS and blame the government but as soon as someone asks for a few pence extra on the pound in income tax to pay for improving public services the'll scream theft. That's why government needs to be devolved to local level, so people can't hide from responsibility anymore.

Socially conscious entrepreneurs? I don't care how caring they are there still going to hang on to a fair bit of money and therefore power. I don't like thew idea of people having power over others, even if they are nice (besides you'd still get allot of evil ones even if you did manage to rig the economy to make niceness viable).
