Yes if the people who earn over 150,000 genuinely work hard and not just for entertainment then yes I think its wrong to take their money but as I say footballers, celebrities and other "stars" get paid well over what they should be worth, whilst people saving and risking their lives don't get paid nearly enough. My view on it anyway.

Celebrities and the others are likely to be out of the country for a lot of the time and so not actually pay tax, or they'll be employing accountants to decrease what they need to pay. Or they'll just move to a tax-haven.

I totally agree with you about firemen etc.
