UK double dip recession inevitable

You know what i think the problem is? The western economy has just got so out of hand that no one truely understands what is going on or how it works.

If we did, we could fix it.
 
Maybe the govnt shouldnt have thrown all its money away on foreign aid, nor on pointless schemes such as useless crime prevention stickers to every household which read 'Warning! This property is postcoded.'

Whoopadeedoo, like thats going to stop a thief.

I think there are people that do understand it, but nobody listens to them. Largely because they don't want to. Because they're saying that we're ****ed. No amount of tax increases or austerity measures can save us, trying to do so is just small beans. If we borrowed nothing and spent our entire GDP on paying back debt for five whole years we'd still be in debt.

Inevitable is a good word. Maybe it's a consequence of us being in a situation where there is far more debt in the world than actual money.
 
To be honest, there's no solution to this. We're screwed, The government have cut where every they could to increase available funds while boosting the economy. But there's just nowhere left to cut, and the boost, doesnt seem much than a milky way.

Oh and to top it off, we're about to get hit by a massive strike. that'll help things along!
