Worst part of things atm is no-one is spending money. I havent sold anything decent for ages , no bites on any of my cars , work has slowed down. Kinda pointless rebuilding any cars atm because they'd only sit around and deteriorate. GovCo is now making life harder because they give themselves pay rises then tax the common man harder to pay for their raises.

And to make matters worse , its not going to get any better soon..

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news everyone.

Wow. That sux crazy. Small businesses are taxed through the ass, not to mention insurances and such. I'm hearing simjlar reports every week now.

My boss is heading the same way. Just about at breaking point.

on a side note, managed to sell my wife's second car, in what was pretty much a dead market.

Thats no good. But its only people on the ground who know whats going on. Its just overeducated morons who dont see how their decisions effect the middle class. We are the ones who pay the most tax for the scum who dont work to sit at home and smoke, drink and sell stuff for cash. Then i get letter saying bulls*#t like have you declared all your income. It makes me sandy in the vag i tell ya
