Sounds like a good case for Income Tax via PAYE to me. Trouble is we're all

such selfish bastards who think we'll live for ever, never get ill and don't

appreciate education (according to recent discussions on universities and

the

crap wages we pay teachers) that we always vote for tax cuts. (well,

promised

tax cuts we know deep down won't be kept but encourage us to think badly of

an honest, transparent - and moral - tax).
