Red Oktober posted:Jeez, it really does bring the receipts. Indeed, literally in some cases, though I'm not sure "this person says they're struggling but had a couple of holidays and a bit of make-up" is the stake to the heart that the author likes to think it is. A bit too close to "look at this person on benefits, but look at their flat screen telly/iPhone/fridge" for my liking. It's clear that Jack has made some mistakes, and I don't begrudge people complaining about things that affect them, but I don't think it warrants the witch-hunt. It's not much different than the crap we see about Meghan Markle (not at the same level as those crazies though).

Darth Walrus posted:I think that there's only so far you can go in assuming that the people doing this are completely oblivious, when the alternative is that the unstable equilibrium between capitalism and democracy has finally collapsed, international capital finally has more bargaining power than the electorate, and our politicians are just going 'gently caress it, we're asset-stripping the country'. But the issue is that this move is saying there are no more assets left to strip - it’s time for a bit of insurance fraud from the arson. The situation you describe has been happening for decades, and at the point where the contradictions of capitalism have come to a breaking point, the response of the government is to strip the copper wiring. Edit: you can say that there’s still the NHS and I guess literal parts of the country, but parasites still require the host body to be alive, and nobody would be able to pay money in a private system when the current choice is death by starvation or death by freezing.

I think it's entirely possible they just found an actual neoliberal out there, they're not all dead and dreaming in the sunken city of Ray'gann, they are still around even if anyone who handles important amounts of money for a living knows it's horseshit.

Answers Me posted:So there’s no loving way the NHS* could survive an IMF intervention, should it come to that, right? The irony is that the IMF and financial markets really want the UK to spend more on healthcare. Other than energy prices, the most pressing productivity blocker and economic drag in the UK is post-covid NHS waiting lists and the huge number of people that can't work due to illness or injury. We're like a reverse Greece in that the people in charge are absolutely desperate to dismantle the state and the international financiers want to stop them doing it.

The energy crisis does seem to be making some people consider that these people are extracting profit while adding nothing. It's one of those doublespeak things, the selling off of our national assets that were built at public expense can be explained to the public as "investment" and then that word shorts their brains.

Unfortunately "consideration" does not do anything to quench my personal bloodlust on the matter unless we find a way to make thinking particularly excruciating.

In reality rather than making houses more affordable wont it smash anyone who bought at market rates in the last few years leaving them in negative equity? So the house prices will be more affordable but the economy will poo poo it guts out as loads of people default on debts and interest rates spiral, making mortgages harder to get. Good news: House prices down 20%! Bad news: minimum 50% deposit needed for a mortgage lol
