....does this mean that money trees do exist, even when they have no roots?

Feck me, can't win can they?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not Johnson sympathiser, but literally what are the government meant to do? These measures are encouraging, celebrate it. Now isn't the time for political point scoring.

It's not a political point It's a money tree point....we can all be unified now in the knowledge that they do exist.
I do realise that realising that the Emperor had no Clothes all along can be a little unsettling.

Edit...it looks like they still don't pay rent though!

You really need to take a step back and assess what you're posting at the moment.

Firstly they are loans (perhaps they shouldn't be) and you're making a political point on the backs of hundreds of thousands of peoples jobs.

We are borrowing extortionate amounts in order to prop up businesses - usually this kind of approach would have the economy blacklisted but these are desperate times which require desperate measures.

Whether you like the Tories or not, now is definitely not the time for these type of posts. This is an unprecedented time and frankly the government are doing the best they can under very challenging circumstances. The damned if they do damned if they don’t approach isn’t helpful.

The government announcement today is very welcome. Will help many families.

I really don't....people will come out of this with a new understanding of how much they have been bullsh1tted to for decades. Also hopefully a whole lot less selfish and more aware of community and interconnectedness so all in all I am a veritable bundle of positivity.

They are not borrowing, they are just printing money
If they don't the whole system will go. Last time it was given to banks who pocketed it. This time it has to go to people to help them stay afloat.

They still don't exist. We're chopping the tree down to get enough wood to keep the pot boiling, in the hope that one of the seeds will begin to sprout once this is all over. But it will be some time even then before we have a fruitful tree once more.

Should I change it to....I applaud the current government for further reinforcing their recent discovery of the money tree...they now acknowledge it exists even when the roots are dead. (Except if you have rent to pay.)
There are a lot of cats that will never be stuffed back in bags after this....even the dead bouncing ones.

Some of the branches were, but the central core is the basis upon which people have been making, producing, servicing and trading since the dawn of human civilisation. Destroy that at your peril.

What other types are there, other than gnarled old hunter-gatherer individualism? Even socialism and anarchism are just different ways of pruning and training the same tree.

The basis of society and commerce remains the same - I do stuff for you, you give me stuff in return, I lend you money so you can buy stuff to sell, or set up the means to make things, then you pay me back afterwards.

You're not wrong but your timing is very bad.

Not to put too fine a point on it but the next 3-6 months is a war of sorts and we need to be pulling in the same direction.

Don't worry, in the real world I am pulling....but you know when you have been shouting self evident truths your whole life and people have had their fingers in their ears! Well the fingers are out now and they need to start fukken listening.

I think that the recent budget was nothing other than high hypocrisy. It was doing exactly what Labour have been saying should be done for years i.e. spending to kick start the economy. It was Labour in Conservative clothing. Nothing more, nothing less. It was doing what the Tories specifically argued should not be done. Basically they lied, and they wanted to try and keep (buy) Labour votes. Today was different. Today was a direct response to the COVID issue. Don’t confuse the two.

This is also the real world with real people.

And most of your posts are cheap, highly questionable, point scoring efforts, or drip drip of innuendo. Just stop it.

Come on BDS you're better than this, you need to calm down and look at what's happening in the real world. Not sure what it is but you've been going backwards with you're posts over the last couple of days. What's happening in the world at the moment has probably never been seen outside of war.
