The irony being that if even just 10% of the US' $700bn bail-out funds were used in the first place in places like Cleveland and New Orleans then the credit crunch would never have happened.

As far as I'm concerned you can blame Thatcher for anything you want.

That fucking bitch has ruined our defence. When she came to power it was alright - now fucking look at it. And we had a decent keeper. Bitch, bitch nasty viciuos bitch.

Im no economic expert, but seeing as near enough every capitalist country in the western world is getting bent over then we'd probably be in a similar situation brown or no brown

No, the global economic crisis is not Browns fault.  What is his fault is what ghanimah refered to above, the fact that nulabour have spent so much money and whilst increasing taxes that they now cannot afford to reduce taxes in order to stimulate the economy and help ordinary folk out.  They now have to borrow even more to help bail out the banks. The UK is going to be one of the most indebted nations in the world.  How does that get paid back?   future taxes.

Brown / Blair claimed all the kudos for the good times, now its gone totally wrong its all a global problem that in no way had anything to do with them.  wankers.

Labour did nothing to halt the fucked up idea to turn the country into a 'service' economy - you can't fit a silver Rizla between the two parties. Basically, apart from finance, we don't do fuck all and all the family silver was sold to the Krauts and Frogs to finance a select minority  we lost any manufacturing base that we had. All we got left is weapons and they want to make them illegal, wings, call centres, discount retail outlets and the Royal Family (except the ginger one).
I should be celebrating the fact that banks are being nationalised and the return of Keynesian economics is imminent but somehow the fact that all these failed executives are sitting on the biggest pile of cash ever leaves the taste a bit bitter.
How much tax would I have to pay if I vote in the Lib Dems - would that be a feasible alternative - fucking hell I must be getting old.

One of the first things Brown did once he was Chancellor was sold a significant percentage of the country's gold reserves when the price of gold was pretty low. Now this same gold is now worth around THREE times what he sold it for.

Prudent Chancellor...my arse !!!

And don't let me get into pension funds, where he'd singlehandedly screwed up everyone's (well except public sector worker's!!) pension funds, whilst he get's a nice index linked (paid for you and I) final salary pension.

Even more than now is probably the answer.

But dont worry. They'll be those nice new "green" taxes that fix the environment by making you poorer. 

Everyone knows now that having more of your wages taken form you automatically makes trees grow and shrinks the hole in the o-zone layer without the government actually spending more on environmental polices. Its a fucking miracle I tell thee.
