Because the post-war Keynesian settlement,
- 'The Age of Deliberate Deficits,'
was, deliberately, set up to enrich the wealthy (the financially wealthy
that is ) at the expense of the poor.
- The (present) 'Age of Balanced Budgets' (sic)
is designed to impoverish the middle-income earners, to the benefit of the
£$£-wealthy.
Keynes saw this coming, but, in the 9140's there was no chance of an
alternative.
There is, now, however, an alternative . . .
Watch out for:
- The Seven Point Action Plan
Coming up, soon,
- on a screen in front of you !!
Abundant hugs
