Sir, – How is it that the Icelandic government has introduced taxes on the banks in order to assist people with their mortgage debts, whereas in Ireland the Government has brought in a variety of taxes on the people to bail out the banks?
It begs the question: Which is closer to a social democracy and which to a plutocracy? – Yours, etc,
