It's not fair!

Following on from yesterday's post, the burning question seems to be whether or not the cuts are fair - the Government say they are, the Opposition and various single-interest groups say they are not.  To me it's a pointless argument - of course they're unfair, the whole bloody situation is unfair!  We find ourselves having to pick up the tab to get ourselves out of a mess that was not of our making - how can that be anything other than unfair?  Indeed the fundamental problem didn't even originate here - we imported it from across the pond.  So let's stop this silly idea of fairness or unfairness - it's all about sharing the pain, of ensuring that the unfairness is spread about as evenly as possible.
