I find it very hard not to feel angry about the unfairness, and intransigence of the wealthy in this country.

Why should I work so hard, to get so little, when these people have a leg up on everything. And I don't count myself as that bad off, in fact I'm, overall, goin pretty well.

Your uncle who makes 100k per week through properties would mostly receive that as income from rent. Unless he's selling a property every week. Income from rent is taxed the same as your income from your job. There is no CGT discount on income.
