One class of individuals is swimming in a record ocean of cash. Another class of people is drowning in record financial failure. The two are tied to each other in a web of fraud and unrestrained greed.

.....these are genuine clips from council complaint letters.

1. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has
fungus growing in it.
2. He's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't
take it anymore.
3. It's the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow.
4. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my
knob off.
5. I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle, very badly, when he put
his foot in the hole in his back passage.
6. And their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my
fence.
7. I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I
think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off.
8. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand?
9. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
10. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path? My wife tripped
and fell on it, yesterday, and now she is pregnant.
11. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.
12. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and 50% are plain
filthy.
13. I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers.
14. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is
cleared.
15. Will you please send a man to look at my water; it is a funny colour and
not fit to drink.
16. Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.
17. I want to complain about the farmer across the road; every morning at
6am his cock wakes me up and it's now getting too much for me.
18. The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is
unsightly and dangerous.
19. Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third,
so please send someone round to do something about it.
20. I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do
something about the noise made by the man on top of me every night.
21. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my
wife.
22. I have had the clerk of works down on the floor six times, but I still
have no satisfaction.

"Even I've heard of Amy Winehouse. Clearly it's highly inappropriate for young pop stars, looked upon as role models by young people, to be celebrating or boasting about their misuse of alcohol, and the 'Amy Winehouse factor' isn't helping the situation."....looking farther away other role models do not help either....
