Excellent assessment Callum. The government is failing us. It has no vision for growth, because it doesn’t know what growth is! For them, as it was for successive governments for decades, is a word that in their eyes means an increase in tax take.
They are looking at the dripping tap in the treasury kitchen, and waiting for the flow to start increasing from a trickle.
Instead of which the idiots , should be looking at the reservoir, its pipes and valves and recognise they need to turn the tap on!!
I’ve been writing for months and years on this subject. The government has skin in the game. They require money to SPEND. Just as their citizens do. So you think they would be more proactive, yes?…. Well no! They are completely inactive!
They are hitting the tap over the head and demanding more tax revenue from their reservoir ( that’s us the people) that supplies the water ( I mean money) by overtaxing and overburdening the majority of our money holders.
Our government is just as inept as those gone before.
They not only have skin in the game, they are also the referee and guess what? ….. they write the rules of their own game!!!! And still they can’t see that! Nor can they begin to get it right by rewriting those rules. Because they are blind to that option. Moreover they are deaf too! Not just criticism but helpful pointers from us trying to encourage them.
They are the worst of ignorant incompetent and visionless leaders. Who want the job, in fact demand the job by making false promises and when they get the job they realise the enormity of it all and pretend they have ideas but really have none! They are promoted to the level of incompetence.
But instead of accepting that they double down on their ineptitude. To give us the picture we have. The one u describe above. Hitting the tap demanding more without setting the reservoir and the pipes in a way for it to overflow the treasury with water!….. I mean money!!!!
What’s happening now is our reservoir of money, or is it water??…. Anyway, our reservoir, is made up of all money. And to get growth we need all that money flowing out through us to give the treasury more money.
By increasing the flow and weight of money we get that elusive growth. Because without that increased flow of money no growth can occur.
Growth to them is an increase in tax take. But to us, we need to have our increased revenue ( income) to grow to enable that increase in tax take! Yes we need to earn more first to generate that increase in tax revenue! Voila! To increase tax flow you need your own extra flow to enable that higher tax take! It’s not rocket science at all! It’s plainly and painfully obvious. We need to earn more and SPEND more to give that increase in tax take.
So what else? Well, we need the constant flow of ALL our money via SPENDING it! But hold on? Isn’t all our money in the reservoir? Well, strictly speaking it should be. But, what happens in reality is that, as the tap is turned on, the money flows towards us, and a valve called a Bank decides it’s theirs! To keep hold of it by damming money off in their own reservoir. And other reservoirs are in the way like pension funds, hedge funds and foreign banks and funds. Who also dam off our money so by the time it should flow out the treasury tap nothing much comes out! Despite them frantically turning in the tap and whacking it with a club hammer it’s still only a trickle!
Holding money outside our grasp. Or outside of our economy of us receiving and SPENDING is the reason for that trickle. Not because the money (water) has disappeared! No it’s out there somewhere, someone somewhere has a hold of it but, it’s being held and allowed to be held by those holding it who don’t have to SPEND it to earn from it! They have no incentive to SPEND it. Because guess what!?? If we have to borrow it ( because we don’t get enough) then they hike it to lend it to us so we have to repay them that and more! Do by NOT SPENDING their money they get more and more and more of it! Whilst we who have to SPEND it all to survive need to SPEND and need to get it back. But that cyclical demand is getting ever harder as time goes by because no matter what we do the money NOT BEING SPENT BY THOSE WHO HOLD THE MOST DONT NEED TO SPEND THEIRS!!!!
