It seems the recession does not hurt the wealthiest at all, in fact it seems to benefit them. So I don't think David Cameron can say we are all in this together any more.

Of course that is true because the rich and the lower and middel class are not taxed the same in America so the recession means the rich will make more money and have to spend less.
The UK has become a den of sin. How can it be there is so much wealth in this country yet there are so many teenage pregnancies, young people being knifed to death, fear and ruthlessness on the streets, strip clubs in every town centre, betting shops popping up everywhere (they aren't in a recession!).
What do you expect when the majority of "rescue" efforts by governments have been done in such a way that it by nature benefits those who are heavily invested in capital markets.

That is very true how ever the wealthy will denie such things.
When is the last time anyone has read a report saying "Lower and middle class benefit while upper class fall"? _________________ *some atheist walks outside and picks up stick*

The 1950s.

not sure exactly what you're trying to say. _________________ “Civil government, so far as it is instituted for the security of property, is in reality instituted for the defense of the rich against the poor, or of those who have some property against those who have none at all.”
