Good grief Richard, I am agog and I must really collect my thoughts - who do these people think they are?
Mankind's development and future prosperity - is dependent on innovation and ingenuity and with plentiful and cheap energy and with all of these - the sky [Universe?] is unlimited.
Agreed, the financial system is fubar but none of what I've read so far instills me with any great optimism that these students of Socialism have travelled any farther down the road..............to a great revisionism, it's back to the future with Tony........
Quote:
The most influential revisionist Labour thinker, Anthony Crosland..., contended that a more "benevolent" form of capitalism had emerged since the [Second World War] ... According to Crosland, it was now possible to achieve greater equality in society without the need for "fundamental" economic transformation. For Crosland, a more meaningful form of equality could be achieved if the growth dividend derived from effective management of the economy was invested in "pro-poor" public services rather than through fiscal redistribution

hereMiliband, Frogsbawm, Crossland, Brown, same difference same outcome = financial illiteracy = eventual bankruptcy and feather your nest like a good money grubbing Socialist on the way [they're all Capitalists at heart].
Part of the same claque. Nussbaum, is a classic watermelon, who is mining the green seam of 'renewable' gold - outrageous, duplicitous embezzlement but isn't that what the green fiction [CAGW] all about - the
ponzi scheme once again comes to mind.
