However, that is an aside on the topic that the foxes are now in control of the hen house and you seem to think that this is a good thing. What a load of crap. You think everyone is going to produce "real goods" and no one is going to crunch the numbers etc? And again, what about teachers and firefighters etc??? They are "parasitic scum" as well? Pot calling the kettle black there. |

The net result will be less money into the hands of ordinary people and a loss of resultant spending power in the economy for basic goods like food etc, I think ultimately that is a bad thing but what is the alternative? As for teachers and firefighter for instance I see them as essential to the running of the economy in general and not subject to market forces, it is the job of the government to make sure there is enough of them and they are in the right places. So far the free market isn't doing a very good job of the amount and quality of teachers and there have been government input to get the said numbers up, I know, my daughter is one of the recruits. Medical system isn't looking too good either, big shortage of nurses and doctors if the newspapers are to be believed, free market seems to be having problems there as well. |

Exactly zqwerty, after total neglect for nine years there is a lot needs fixing. The people have voted and chosen to try and fix the problems. |
