NEVER STEAL ANYTHING - SMALL

Workers are taught in school and church that honesty is the best policy, but this is capitalism and capitalism just does not work that way.
"Depending on who you talk to, fraud costs the economy £14 billion a year (according to the Association of Police Officers) or £72 billion (the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners)" (Times, 2 October)
This is not workers dodging fares on the train this is a big business operation, it involves VAT evasion and what is called "carousel fraud". The Revenue and Customs have added an extra 700 staff bringing the total to 1,500 to deal with this fraud.
What a wasteful society capitalism is. Thousands of workers, crooks and cops in a ceaseless unproductive treadmill. RD
