One Is In It Together With One's Subjects

According to The BBC, Prince Charles received an 18% pay increase from the Taxpayer last year. That at a time when thousands of other workers are facing the sack, freezes on wages, longer working lives, and attacks on their pensions. They also reveal that his other income rose by 4%.

That is income, of course, largely from the estates such as the Duchy of Cornwall, the vast tracts of land that the Royals' ancestors robbed from the ordinary peasants of Britain.
