Well i think it's just that icurafu doesnt understand the tv licensing fees.Yes we do. Everybody pays tax.I'm sure some students dont have a TV either, but I doubt they pay tax.
Funding the bbc isnt tax per se but its a license that everyone who owns a tv has to pay for. If you don't own a tv then you don't have to pay and if you only own a black and white tv then you don't have to pay as much.
Thanks, I'll just assume that you have a complicated system for funding government tv, rather then the simple, taken-from-the-media-budget, and maybe socially less responsible system that Australia and America has.
edit: btw, by socially less responsible, I mean the rich pay more and the poor pay less.
By essential, I mean the government assumes that everyone with a TV must be watching it, as it is essential to being a good UK minded person.
