Our conservative party had a meme-word for "privatized profits, socialized cost" too.

It was called the "participation society".


and when they're out of power it's flipped on its head. David Cameron was all about 'Broken Britain', which was the collapse of marriage and social decay giving rise to youth culture

Still better than Corbyn though. The guy is an actual full on loon

Year | Inflation rate | Growth Rate | Inflation Adjusted Growth Rate


2012 | 1.7% | 2.2% | 0.5%
2013 | 1.5% | 1.7% | 0.2%
2014 | 0.8% | 2.6% | 1.8%
2015 | 0.7% | 2.9% | 1.2%
2016 | 2.1% | 1.5% | -0.6%
2017 | 2.1% | 2.3% | 0.2%
2018 | 1.9% | est 2.9% | 1%


Also... you guys who keep posting quarterly growth rates... Obama had 5.2% growth in 2014 Q2. Posting a Trump Q3 growth rate of 3.3% as if it's special is just wrong.

Also, our average growth rate since the 1950s is 3.1%, so Trump's economic performance is barely over average in the quarter and below average over the fiscal year.

We could inflate our way out of debt. But the government would need to raise taxes massively to control costs and I think the Republicans would turn sheet-white at the thought. Will be necessary one day, though.

American society will crumble when that happens and we won't have to worry about debt anymore.

Just like when Trump won the election

And again after Trump passed the tax bill

And again when net neutrality was repealed
