We are shareholders in the destruction..

Gone are the days when we can complain about The Man. This mysterious other taking away our money, our successes opportunities,  as well as our weed.. We are now the shareholders in this process either through government or through house prices. So we need government, as well as UK PLC to success which means taking some 'tough decisions'. BTW - am i the only one who reads 'tough decisions' as screwing someone else over..?

Humanity has so far only found two ways of distributing money - the state and the market. When we are complicit in the success (or failure) of both we become shareholders. So Britain is the 4th biggest economy, whereas back in the 70s is was all about the death of empire.  Anyone want to go back? The difference may not be felt in our pockets, but maybe in our national pride..
