human nature aint it
irrespective of rights or wrongs nobody will ever go 'please sir take some more', it's the opposite. You only have to look at the ongoing expenses scandal to see what the great and the good of the nation get up to, down to the chavs on the council estate on incapacity and carers allowance cos nobody gives a fuck

depends
pricks on low salaries are mighty quick to say: "please sir, take some more - of their salaries"

people are by nature out to get what they can and keep what they can. and anyone who thinks otherwise is (i) naive and (ii) guaranteed to be a low earner themselves

Yes but high earners have a lot more disposable income than low earners
so taking that bit extra doesn't make things a struggle for them.
