lol, thought the same. i mean wtf is it with these people. worse than rags in defeat.
Like most people, I meekly accepted the argument that we needed deep cuts to reduce the deficit without questioning. Then, when I actually did my own research and asked questions, I could see it was complete baloney. The so-called recovery is based on higher consumer spending, not higher productivity and Further cuts will make things worse. If the government actually invested money in infrastructure and paying public servants decent wages, that would help drive up output-based wage rises and increase growth. That would increase tax revenues and GDP, leading to reduction of deficits and debt as a proportion of GDP being much lower. That's not being left or right wing; that's being economically literate.
Because it increases consumer demand, thereby stimulating output.Lucky13 said:Prestwich_Blue said:But none of the Tories on here has offered any convincing argument for more cuts, beyond the Central Office propaganda pumped out by The Mail & Telegraph.

How will increasing public sector pay increase private sector pay?
