Thistledoo Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 From your link, It has now become widely recognised that perhaps the greatest economic policy failure in the UK, US and eurozone during the 16 boom years before the crash of 2008 was the explosion of borrowing by banks, households, businesses and governments Do banks make policy or governments? Don't banks borrow money in order to lend it back to the public and business, the bottom line is that if everyone hadn't borrowed money in the first place there wouldn't have been a crash but there also wouldn't have been a 16 year boom.

maxmaximus Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 And your point is? That the governments of the time should shoulder the most blame for the crash, then the people that wanted everything now despite it being unaffordable and finally the banks for lending money out in order to stimulate the economy.

That is a viewpoint. It is incorrect but I respect your right to be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 The mess was created by bankers. Bankers (camerons friends) are tories. The mess was thus created by the rich and should be paid for by confiscating their assets. The rich caused it....MAKE THEM PAY! That's about an idiotic extrapolation from erroneous assumptions as it's possible to make - up there on a par with thinking that Nick Parkes makes documentaries about food based moons. It's amazing that you're allowed a vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing that you're allowed a vote. You are of course entitled to an opinion that has tory bias and is totally incorrect. I respect your right to be wrong .

Thistledoo Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Look you went and did it again Put the keyboard down. Walk away. I spoke the truth. I realise that some on here would sooner hide themselves away behind a wall of tory boy illusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
