It may be true of 19th Century foundations - which I think is what Dulwich College was, but it certainly doesn't reflect all public schools, and certainly not in the mid to late 20th century. Certainly all schools go through problem times (and not just public schools) - but the generalities being quoted here are misplaced. Dulwich College does appear to have had its own, very specific, problems. -

No, it is punishing people you no longer like or care for, it is 'c;leaning' an area of people you consider undesirable. Forcing people to move house by taxing them for an asset they have already paid for out of taxed income (and remember you will also sweep up purchase tax as well...). Essentially the government is proposing nationalising land, with no compensation. If you have to pay government land rent for your property (which is what a wealth tax is in effect) you no longer own the property. The Government does.

Today I learned that living in a 5 bedroom, £2m+ house in Dulwich is basically like being in prison. Honestly, CPR Dave is the finest-crafted persona on the forum. He never fails to suck people in - I fall for it every time. It's top quality trolling (in the original sense of the word). From the Subtle Art of Trolling: troll v.,n. To utter a posting on Usenet designed to attract predictable responses or flames. Derives from the phrase "trolling for newbies"; which in turn comes from mainstream "trolling";, a style of fishing in which one trails bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The well-constructed troll is a post that induces lots of newbies and flamers to make themselves look even more clueless than they already do, while subtly conveying to the more savvy and experienced that it is in fact a deliberate troll. If you don't fall for the joke, you get to be in on it. https://www.urban75.com/Mag/troll.html
