There's actually no wonder why England is falling off the cliff. According to an advisor of Tony Blair, high taxes are necessary to make a nation happy. One can only hope – for Britain's sake – that he is wrong in his assumption that hate-and-envy are compelling emotions for the people of the United Kingdom:
David Halpern, who advises the Prime Minister on social issues, said the redistribution of wealth is the key to a nation's contentment. …Mr Halpern, who works in the Prime Minister's strategy unit, said that people are unhappy if they see others earning more than them. He argues if we want a happier society the Government should reduce the gap between rich and poor. http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/tax-advice/income-tax/article.html?in_article_i d=409205&in_page_id=77
