Top 10 reasons why the BBC should be scrapped
Here is the first in our Top 10 series and we're going to start with aunty Beeb.
Many people still hold the BBC in high esteem. We can see that in surveys posted by the Press Gazette, the New Statesman, the Guardian Newspaper but most commonly by the BBC themselves. So we're going to offer 10 reasons why you shouldn't trust the BBC, and why, in our opinion, it would be best if the organisation were scrapped.
If you believe that these 10 issues are a price worth paying, then that's absolutely fine. We just want to make as many people as possible aware of what is going on at the Beeb.

These Capitalist shoes were made for walking
By Drew
Lesserpawn
Broadly
speaking, capitalism starts with two simple principles – risk and reward and
competition. Hard work and good decisions are rewarded financially; poor
decisions mean that your competitors will succeed instead. This approach uses
the invisible hand of the market to ensure efficiency and thus creates a
sustainable and effective economy. In other words, people vote with their
wallets and everyone gets what they want.
Let’s take
shoes as an example. Company ‘A ltd’ starts making shoes. They don’t fit very
well and are pretty expensive, but, as they are a necessity, they are bought. This
makes ‘A ltd’ a lot of money and makes other people interested in making shoes
too.
