Most people think many of the luxuries we have are essentials. The mongtards truley believe they need that crap.
Also so many people think they are "poor" when they have no concept of the phrase. Very few people in this country are poor in real terms. Id go as far to say even many on benefits are not poor.
People are so blinkered by the silly greedy world we live in that if we taxed or restricted access to luxuries they would just feel victimised and think its another "attack on the working man" or some other bullshit.
