Is UK Government running Health, Police, Roads, Environment as effectively as the TAX OFFICE (HMR&C) is run?

Question

Is more care taken to ensure our money is taken off us than is taken in spending it?

Answer 1

Emphatically - yes.

As one tax inspector said "It's not true that we take taxpayers money and flush it all down the toilet, we throw quite a lot of it out of the window too."

They care a lot about making sure you don't spend your own money, and very little about how they spend it (or do I mean waste it?)

Answer 2

You are right.The tax office is very efficient indeed while the other public services are struggling.The NHS dental service appears to be non existent despite the fact that we are all actually paying for it.
