William of Orange, or William III, was King of England between 1672 and 1702. He didn’t really do anything remarkable, except think of ways to make money because he was a bit skint after knocking seven bells out of the French. His most famous way of making money was the ‘Window Tax’, the bigger and more windows you had the more you got taxed. The idea was to tax the use of freely available things like air, water and in this case sunlight.

As far as getting something for free go sunlight is right up there with wind and rain. People got a bit fed up of paying for actual windows, so they just left holes in the wall or had a brick lattice instead. Now back in 1690 when the tax was introduced central heating didn’t as such exist and the winters were probably colder etc etc, so people jus got cold and wet instead of paying.

SO what on earth would possess my compadre Ben to think that by making people pay for facebook that they would still use it?

What you are about to read is a bit of rant about how rubbish university is for actually getting a job and how the government are to blame. Oh and I blame a few immigrants but thats just because I read the daily mail on the tube.
