the idiot children of Thatcher

When the Telegraph - one of the Tory's favourite supporters is reporting valid fears that there is going to be a slow down in the economy (aka a double dip recession -just after a few months of strongly denying there could ever be such a thing) then... well, the chances are that - there's going to be exactly that. With a fragile - barely-limping-along not-really-a-recovery and then loading on an extra sneaky tax burden everyone will have to bear, well that clearly isn't the brightest idea in the world. (A suggestion: The Tories might think of getting some tax from their rich friends which might help out a lot more - but that's never going to happen, or getting the banks to pay back a good chunk of their bail out money - instead of giving it away in undeserved bonuses - would help but again, never going to happen...) what drives me mad about Tory voters - is that they think, because they're usually rich that Tory MPs are good with money. They're NOT. Most of them inherited wealth (or in the case of Thatcher - married wealth) I don't think any of them actually earnt their millions. So they have no real concept of how the real economy works and so pursue the most retarded ideas it's possible to dream up - fantasying and gambling that everything will turn out for the best. Just like Nu Labour did - and Thatcher's early experiments did before them...
