The Budget

looks like someone's been brushing up on his Marx. I'm not a Marxist but it's incredible to think that this guy was saying exactly the same things about limitless economic growth 150 years ago and it still rings true...

but growth is o.k. if it's real growth. when people say "i made £xxxx's on my house" i ask them where does that profit come from? and how much more would you have to pay to move to a similar or larger house?
some people just don't get that the rampant house price inflation that has had the full support of the government is just an increase of debt. it's fictitious growth subsidised by borrowing.
