If you wanted me to expand then what I'm saying is government should be spending less. You cannot borrow your way our of a recession caused by borrowing too much. If it spends less then government can reduce taxes that affect everyone, not just the rich. People will have more money in their pocket, to spend on goods and services. Which means more jobs are created in the productive part of the economy.
You make it all sound very simple Andrew..how about telling us were you would start making your cuts in public spending to pay for your tax breaks and less Government borrowing..NHS? sickness benifits? pensions?..or by cutting jobs in public sector causing even worse unemployment?
Your solution is the same old Tory way that has been tried and tested in the past..in fact it has been the same Tory policy since the war..and has never worked..it just causes more misery!...have you people got any new ideas?
