Victorian Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 So, Liz Truss. The topic of the thread. Her own economic adviser has admitted that her tax cuts may well result in interest rates reaching 7%. Seven ****ing percent. Tax cuts for the sitting pretty party loyal. Unaffordable mortgage and personal credit repayments for the peasants amidst a wider cost of living shock. These people are vandals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not think that tax cuts - letting people keep more of their money , so they can pay for stuff, id preferable to the state taking it off you , then giving it back to you and expecting you to be grateful for a handout?

Tax cuts are inflationary with further economic lever consequences (interest rates). Tax cuts may well balance out with the negatives at and beyond a point in the food chain of wealth/income but it will be a horror show for the poor. Inflation is everything. Even Thatcher knew that.

The inflation is not being caused by the populace having too much money. You can hike interest rates to 20% , it’s not going to reduce inflation one iota. the inflation was caused by war, QE and covid spending splurges. We need the economy to grow.

That is the only way out . We thefore need to undercut eu. The main inflationary inputs are external in origin but futher inflationary pressures make it worse and more prolonged. Grow the economy by all means because that will create wealth. But growing economic demand is not the same as economic growth. The economy can't accomodate more demand without labour supply. There is no extra labour supply under the conditions of this government's ideology (the ideology of people that the government continues to create the illusion of). Therefore tax pounds swelling personal spending budgets only can inflate price. Interest rates clobber the least well off and the struggling people above them. Inflation will lead to further increases to interest rates. If this country is serious about helping people in the cost of living crisis then inflation and interest rates are everything. Creating economic growth is good but the benefits will take time to percolate through. The least well off need inflation reduced soon. If it drags on and compounds month on month or year on year then we've seen nothing yet. It's tough to see any easy answers on how to reduce inflation but it's job #1 for the PM. Either that or play the political game and **** the poor. Edited July 23, 2022 by Victorian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes... I do. But my point was that it seems to be the ONLY tactic politicians have (or at least the only big one they're telling us about) As you say, the logic of cutting taxes is that folk have more of their own money to spend on non-essential stuff, which creates or supports jobs and boosts other government revenues like VAT. Right now, if they gave us a few hundred pounds of tax cut most folk would use it to reduce their debt or to pay for essential stuff like petrol, food and domestic energy. Comparatively little return back to the government in increased revenue - so you need to ask yourself why are Truss & Sunak taking opposing views on the wisdom of it in the short term. Government is committed to funding lots of expenditure for several years to come related to things like Covid vaccinations, NHS backlogs, increasing defence spending and donating weapons to Ukraine. Its cheap sound bite politics from Truss, imo - however it will probably help her win the party member vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
