One thing I take issue with - why are you only peeved about the economic management of the last decade? - this cluster is the result of the ethos of self/no regulation and letting the dogs run free and it goes back to 79/80. Nouveau LieBlair was too spineless to swim against the tide but the die was cast by the 'Chicago Boys' a dead lousy B-movie actor and a dotty old lady from Grantham.[QUOTE][/QUOTE]
Penguin 68, you are right in one respect but people seem to forget that a certain opposition leader by the name of Dave, actually wanted further de-regulation. The suggestion is that things could have been even worse under that administration, if that were possible!
