Slight problem with wording in that we know that previous public ownership did not see "all profits reinvested not given<br />away on fat cat bonuses and dividends".<br /><br />There was a tendency for governments to use profits to cross-subsidise spending that would otherwise come from taxation, which is obviously a problem.<br /><br />Given that the most trusted financial institutions now are the mutual building societies, something should be made of this in terms of rhetoric.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11443724356434212172noreply@blogger.com
