The thing is, you may be happy with it but a lot of other tax payers who struggle financially and pay tax that consumes a large portion of their wage are not. This isn't about who's life is more valuable, it's about priorities. The UK government is struggling enough as it is with all the benefits it's giving its population, giving these benefits out for free will only worsen the problem.

I think that's fair enough, but I also think it's a matter of sucking it up. People struggling is still better than people dying - and if it doesn't come down to the value of a domestic life being > than a refugee, the natural choice is to assist.

I don't expect to go into a foreign country and get all their benefits without paying a penny.

Subjected to the same environment and pressures as them, you honestly can't say that you wouldn't react the same way.

They should not be entitled to any welfare that the population of a country pays high tax on, no. Like I previously stated, charities are the best option.

I'd be happy for my tax to go towards supporting those in need, regardless of whether they're a tax-paying citizen or not. Charities wouldn't come close to government as far as their fiscal capacity goes.

As far as 'government not spending money on things the tax payer won't benefit from', it's a bit of a ridiculous sentiment. Any government will have costs/overheads/projects/etc that aren't benefiting the tax payer in any form that could be cut well before we decide that the value of a Syrian life is less than the value of yours.

Quote where I have said that, please.

Refugees typically don't pay tax

You said you believe that non-tax payers shouldn't receive benefits. Are you saying you don't believe they should be entitled to any welfare? Cause that's a great way to stop them from becoming self sufficient tax-payers.

I'm a strong believer that if you don't pay tax, you aren't entitled to any benefit a tax payer would have. Same goes to the refugees.

So you don't believe they should be given the opportunity to become taxpayers?

Ingrateful bastards should be shoved in a forest and made to eat eachother for survival. I don't give a stuff. I hate every last one of them. In all odds the only time I'm EVER likely to meet ANY of them is "Hello welcome to xxx techincal support please how may I help you please?" and they don't even do THAT right. I don't like the way the men look, I think the women look really... erm.. can't think of anything not tribal right now, frankly they serve no purpose in my life other than to give me and other americans a hard time with corperations outsourcing their jobs to them, and giving me a hard time in any given technical support say nintendo for example. Overall, hard time. I don't care about them. Never have, never will. I really. Don't. CARE. :/ They can starve and I won't give them an old can of beans. I especially hate ingrates, the loving pricks. Now, this is just angst talking, and I'm sure there are plenty of nice ones I'd sure as hell be fond of meeting, but that won't make lookin at em any easier, nor would it make me care any more than I do now about their living conditions, or lack there of. I am white. I don't need people guilt tripping me into caring about someone I've never met in my life nor care to in the slightest. I don't care nor can anything make me. Their continued existence means nothing to me in the grand scheme of things.

Damn, did a refugee kill your puppy as a child or something?
