It's the best system there is, but can be abused: 1 in 3 homes dependent on state benefits
Summed up perfectly here: 'New Labour welfare policy has been designed to "create beholden voters rather than independent people".'
If there is no financial consequence (other than the chance of losing a hand out - or job, in the case of a bloated civil service and NGOs packed with staff - by not opting in a certain direction) to one's vote, its direction will inevitably go where the most favourable option lies.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
