We still need to refine our discourse so that it can be understood, let alone absorbed... In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
There is a story to be told about the structural growth of the equity markets, with the expansion of pension funds after WW2, followed by the wave of deregulation and then the sea-change of policy (didn't you write a diary about "Bubbles" Greenspan at some point...)
But these are natural questions to at least ask if you look at things from a "systems perspective" it seems to me... aren't they?
The other point is that they see the PS as being unreformed, marxist and hopelessly out of touch. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
I could understand this for people that were over 20 years old in 1981, when the PS nationalised, but as a young'un, it took me quite some time to understand that then the PS was actually strongly on the left at the time, not the party of "a little bit of redistribution to the poor, please" in the middle of the neo liberal market that I knew for most of my life.
