      No real surprise there. Shows how utterly reliant we are on (American) MNCs. If (when) the large corporation tax receipts go, we are royally screwed. Yet, the Government continue to increase spending beyond the recommended amounts. People still complain about things like property tax etc. We need to massively expand our tax base and make ourselves significantly more resilient to shocks from MNCs.

      Yup, we’re highly exposed and will get crushed again in a worldwide recession. Unfortunately all the current expenditure we’ve wasted over the years will count for nothing, and capital expenditure (which would be very helpful in such a scenario) has been tragically under funded.

      “England would still rule you. She would rule you through her capitalists, through her landlords, through her financiers, through the whole array of commercial and individualist institutions she has planted in this country and watered with the tears of our mothers and the blood of our martyrs”

      Not necessarily England anymore, and a bit less of the martyrdom nowadays but the sentiment still stands. A recovery built on stilts is easily taken down
