Sen Goes Feral

Just commented of Hopi`s Blog thusly , I am worried about him he is ususally a puveyor of Keith Vaz-eline which may be nasty stuff but slips down pretty well . He is getting quite cross now

You quote the IFS on the growth of incomes in the top 10% . I have no doubt you will recall that the IFS also predicted the new top rate will lose revenue …. Gordon Brown, again was certain this was the case for ten years , so what has changed ? Not the popularity of taxes on the rich, they are always popular ,as indeed are any taxes on ‘other people’. So either Mr. Brown undergone a coincidental Damascene conversion to the Growth potential of levelling down.. or this is spending our money on dim witted populist electioneering. Teaser eh .
What fascinates me is the way you seem to have convinced yourself that it was actually a good thing to utterly misjudge pubic spending because that means we have to borrow and print money which is “good” for the economy . Its like saying we could all fly if we kicked our own arses hard enough.
