It’s just cynical reality. They talk about being anti state to their mates, but when it comes down to it they don’t mind tax and spend in the slightest because it keeps them in power. When faced with a competitive offer, for example Labour is fundamentally built on aspects of wealth redistribution, and when those ideas become popular they will offer them as well. The last thing they will tolerate is not being in power, their objective is you have whatever you want as long as they are in charge. Which is to say, private school educated Etonian offspring of vast empires of unearned wealth. These ghouls basically don’t have any strings to their bow apart from knowing how to handle power and keep hold of it.
