re: Virgin Money takes over Northern Rock
I agree with you re past practices, but he contradicts himself (imho), when he states
Quote:
Yes, the entrepreneur screws up – as with cars, cola, cosmetics and all those other discarded Virgins – but he takes risks.
The more prosaic truth is that the Virgin boss keeps himself in homes in Holland Park and Necker Island by taking taxpayer subsidies and operating heavily protected businesses

So when he takes risks and loses, he "screws up" - when he takes risks and wins , he is "taking taxpayers subsidies and operating heavily protected business".
