Billy Bragg vs the bankers


Over in Britain, the general public is as outraged as we are here about bailed-out bankers receiving huge bonuses. RSB (Royal Bank of Scotland) is now owned, in large part, by the government and the taxpayers. Billy Bragg has begun a campaign to stop the payment of bonuses, and he's declared he'll withhold his taxes to prove his point. I think it's called talking with the poet about taxes.
