England nationalized rail passenger services lease carriages from rolling stock companies (ROSCOs). 87% of rolling stock controlled by 3 Luxembourg companies. Paid £1.282bn dividends in last 3 yrs. Not taxed in UK. Privatization has hollowed out the UK - Taxes lost, it is all about exploitation.

This is what a rigged economy looks like: In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker. In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker. This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker. That has got to change.
