The UK. economic costs of divorce is larger than the defence budget incl. the wars

**nevosopelo** · 8th-April-2011

Lately, the news in the UK. are all about the amounts of money the ministry of defence budget has and, the reduction of to the armed forces of people and material.

I learn about this highly amusing fuss on the suffering of the air, land and sea armies at the hands of the spending cuts gurus of this coalition.
The current government, however, has made no mention of the massive costs to the nation arising from divorce laws. As they struggle to control the huge debt accrued over the last decade, they have shown to be quite merciless on who is going to lose in the tightening of the financial belt. Yet, not a word has been uttered on what, if anything, this government is going to do to stop the large financial hemorrage caused by the decisions made in the family courts by judges who only seek to continue the current extortion that marriage breakdown has become.

It is like hitting a dead horse with a twig, they just won't acknowledge the problem and, when they do, the UK. will be as busted as Ethiopia.

It seems to me no one has appreciated what means the spending ratios of the current government. So, I have decided to include some statistical numbers in order to illustrate the ludicrous way the UK. taxpayer is funding its own dismantling of the social cohesion.

UK Defence Spending 1692-2015 - Charts

Please note: defence spending £48.2 billion; welfare £116.2 Billions, unfortunately the later has not been broken down in its parts, and understandibly so.

Wouldn't you think of a society who is spending more than double the amount on defence on a war on itself and on self-destruction a loopy and cracked one?

Rhetorical question, really!!!!

Thank you Percy.The big wigs and acolytes, who keep the general population in utter ignorance on how the taxes are wasted, can't be bothered to, at least, try to appreciate how dire is the situation.NEVO
