From personal experience I'd put it about 15%. Get below that I'm happy, get above that I need to work on it some more

This is exactly the sort of thing governments should be encouraging a national conversation about. But no governments have the bottle to talk straight. They prefer to treat us like infants who can't handle challenging facts.

"Far more than I want to pay but far less than I'd be happy to see AN Other paying" probably sums up the general conclusion likely to emerge from a thread like this.
It's past time people got some education on this subject and got real..."Oh I've paid in al my working life so now I'm entitled to and expect X, Y & Z"...well I'm sorry folks the five bob a week you paid in forty years ago is going no-where to pay the hundreds of pounds in cash or services you expect at this year's prices, |
