Pharmaceuticals keep people alive who contribute nothing to the economy.
Surely an intelligent gent like yourself must realize this.

Nah it really doesn't.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, it really does. I help create business, I supply staff, this helps drives the economy and unless you’re selling things exclusively abroad and bringing money in from other economies you are making absolutely no sense.

Cigarettes are heavily taxed.

Many of these places here will have some of the cheapest housing in the UK. For them to move away would mean they'd have to purchase much more expensive housing when they just don't have the skills required to gain employment that means they'd be able to afford more expensive properties.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Immigrants from places in the World where housing is even cheaper manage to do it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd guess some of the immigrants you speak of are rather more desperate to leave their own countries than the people in the Rhondda are. If you have a strong connection to a community you're not going to upsticks away from family and friends unless it's for a very good reason.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Like a job?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The value of the job would need to be high enough to compensate for moving away from family, friends, a way of life.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

How much are those things worth then?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you don't know I really do feel sorry for you.
Have a blessed day.

You help create businesses

So you're one of those guys that keeps sending me messages on linkedin offering to help grow my company.

Basically a middleman that takes a cut and profits from a constrained labour market while creating nothing.

Called it exactly right.

No, I don’t do that at all. I find it amusing you have to keep making things up. Is everything okay at home because your self esteem seems to be on the floor.

You're a middleman

Know your place.

I’m not at all but your comment is telling.

Just when I thought you couldn’t get any lower

I think you need to have a long, hard look in the mirror. Not with your d!ck in your hand this time.

Not getting involved in your back and forth with Robbing but EVERY job creates economic benefit, money earned goes back into the economy both local and nation wide?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Making cigarettes

Real winner for the economy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Drilling for oil, the same.
In fact the whole petrochemical industry.
Medicine, keeping non-productive people alive.
Not an exhaustive list, but I'm sure there are others.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cigarettes have no economic benefit. Oil and medicine does.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Count all the different cancers caused by the oil industries.
Look at the world burning around us and the costs to remediate the climate changes caused by burning carbon. The plastics in everything including people.

They paid for the Olympic Stadium here. Went from $0.55 for 20 to $1.55 overnight. And non-native ones now cost over $20.00. Good point, good sir.

Someone posted the link above. Cost 12.9 billion to the UK economy, brings in 12.3 billion

Don't let the facts get in the way of you trying to impress other stupid people on here.

Well no, I’m saying it because of your behaviour. You’ve come in here, posted several hot takes on a subject that you are demonstrably clueless about, failed to answer even the simplest of questions and then attacked me because I’ve humiliated you.

All of that makes me think you’re short and don’t have children because you’re an awful human being.

It’s not anymore complicated than that really, is it.
