I read a really good piece in some rag the other day, about the economy, and instead of always pushing the economy towards massive growth, why don't they settle for minimal or nil growth, even down growth a little, instead of trying to compete with Growing Economies i.e China/Brazil etc. The article asked wether it was better to have stability instaed of boom and bust all the time.:rock:

went to asda as advised and got 12 tennents for £7, bargain. bought 4 packs but i digress.
my opinion half jaked is that the world/uk is only setting itself right in depends of wages etc, a self employed joiner building new build kits was never meant to drive a brand new range rover and live in a half million pound house, a brickie was never supposed to make crazy money either, ROK were paying theirs 40k plus per year base rate. :O

Your so right Rab, we all want the golden goose, but it's not just the building game, most poeple are paid too much, and then still spend more than they earn. You would hope that we could all learn to get a little less, spend less and waste less as well, but I doubt it. The lead needs to come from the top, Directors, celebraties, sports stars, Bankers etc, but we have no real leaders or moral role models any more, having money it seems is the new world religion, the more the better, and sod those without.
