Oh, that's that sorted then. Can you have a word with them, and then we can get it fixed. Job done. How silly of us to have not spotted this.
Yet another stupid head-in-the-clouds idea from someone not actually that fussed about where the money comes from, so long as we just spend it anyway. Even if what you say is true (and it isn't), we already have one of the lowest tax avoidance and evasion rates in the entire world. We've squeezed out the easy juice and only pith and pips remain. Getting the rest of the juice is the hard yards. Very hard. Not that this matters if as you've repeatedly demonstrated you don't care financial prudence.
That's not a particularly relevant article, since it doesn't mention anything about our deficit in 2010. It simply states that the need to balance the books is a myth, but provides no data nor basis for concluding why that is the case. And I might add, it's pretty much what I might expect from the Guardian.
But look, I do know about this stuff having studied it at university. There's no argument about increasing debt to fund public investment, at the right time, and in moderation. However, had we not taken action to at least bring the deficit under control, we would almost certainly have had our credit rating downgraded with the effect that our cost of borrowing would have gone up and the cost of servicing the public debt would have put even more strain on our public resources.
And whether you like it or not, the route the government took, worked. It turned us around from negative growth into the strongest growing major economy in Europe, and it's reduced the deficit by 3/4.
