  • TBH the more I hear and see these people talk I feel like their opinions are based in a perception that we're living in a time somewhere before the 1980s.

    See concepts like a huge state, over regulation, binary public/private ownership. See also a view of investors as pension funds and average private investors.

    It's like they just can't get their heads around how complicated the world now is.

  • I still think the description of Trussonomics as "cargo cult Thatcherism" was inspired.

    They watched Thatcher pull economic and social levers to do things. They don't understand what those levers DO. They think they're just magic. So they're pulling them, too.
