Savers could Fund "Big Society"

"The analysis, by consultants Consulting Inplace, comes as a leading bishop suggested the idea of the big society was little more than a cover for cuts."

This was taken by The Guardian, exposing what the big society really is. 

"The Bishop of Oxford, the Rt Rev John Pritchard, said community groups in deprived areas would be less likely to take up the big society agenda if they were struggling to cope with slashed funding."

So how can this idea of a better communities happen in circumstances such as the economic state that we are in? This is interesting because we can now see that The Big Society is hiding something behind the high positives of a better future for British society.

Would they be distracting us from the cuts to give them more of a chance to raise or add some stupid tax? I cant see this working even though it sounds like it is in our best interest. 

"Socially responsible" savers could be encouraged to put their money into "big society" ISAs under plans being announced to show how the money will be found to fund David Cameron's vision of a volunteering renaissance.

"The Cabinet Office is publishing plans to attract capital into the social investment market, including £400m from dormant bank accounts and – eventually – further sums from individuals and institutions like pension funds that might be prepared to invest routinely in social enterprise."

This is an extract taken from The Guardian again and this shows another way of the Tories getting their dirty hands into our pockets. I am sure more schemes are on the way to give them an excuse to take more money. Greed is always the goal in Capitalism. 

I feel that the idea in theory and in practice but brought in at a bad time when we as a society are at our most vulnerable.
