Mehul Gera The UK did not get rich through any legitimate and non-violent pursuits instead they ran grand schemes and simultaneously accumulated wealth through practically stealing products in a system where they would tax the citizens and then use that money to buy products which then it would be practically free and they would export for a even greater markup.

Mr. Nonsense The Queen does pay taxes. How much? That I do not know.

Chloe wilson Actually she pays income tax

@@sparx180 the queen dosen't have to pay a cent of tax if she doesn't want to. She does voluntarily pay just enough taxes to make herself look good. However there is no reason to believe that she's paying her fair share as her tax returns are effectively top secret. If the queen was paying her fair share then the first thing she would do is send her tax return to the times of London. On top of all of that there is no reason to believe that Charles or who ever comes after him will continue to pay any taxes. A recent report said the the royal family is more secretive than MI-5. The British freedom of information act specifically exempts the entire royal family from all freedom of information act requests. So basically the royal family has a license to steal.

Proportionally each individual would be paying less than a cent, im sure you can find a penny in ur dresser you didn't even know was there and it would make 0 difference, the crown provides a crucially important diplomatic force for the country of england with the centuries old institution holding incredible sway on world leaders

@@xanderliptak And those that the people own, given them by George III in a business deal that obligated them to pay for the upkeep of the royals. How much income is generated for the British people today by those estates? If the amount is more than what they spend on the royals, they are making a net profit from having them around, if the amount is less, then yes, you are making money for them.

I mean, the alternative is that they step down and the British economy loses billions in tourist money. The reason why Windsor castle makes far more than any other European castle is that there is an actual monarch living in there. If the royals would step down, your taxes would go up, not down. They make money for you, not the other way around.

Yes and no. You could say that maintaining a heritage site is pointless since they're just a collection of old buildings but they do bring in money through tourism. And the same applies to the monarchy. Their presence does massively boost the UK economy and I think actively hating them isn't really going to do anything since its not like they're colonizing countries like they used to do. I think what is sad is if people are actually obsessed with the royalty too much. They're just Kardashians that actually benefit the UK economy and also sometimes do charity.

It's more ridiculous that the US has a system that allows CEOS to become that rich in the first place with the lack of regulations and allowing insider trading thru stock buybacks. This system focuses heavily on quarterly projections and earnings and is the reason why there is always conflict between management and workers, because the US system allows companies to be shaped to focus on the people at the top instead of putting equal value on every employee.

He has instructed all kinds of other government employees to do likewise, e.g. Pence, the US Air Force, etc.. Foreign countries book rooms at his hotels that they never stay in.
