Not true. I have a house, a job, a computer and several thousands pounds worth of books, CDs, videos, etc.

I'm a systems analyst, by the way, so I'm earning a few pounds here and there.

To believe in an ideology does not mean that you would have to immediately benefit from it. I would expect myself to fall into the 'short term loss' category from taxation before the advantages of the system brought long term benefits.
