Point 3......I'm not sure that many think that "House price inflation is good for the economy and creates growth" 
Point 4....." The majority of economists recognise that severe spending cuts are harmful to the economy" ........mainly if, like Brown, you consider the public sector to be 'the economy' 
Point 5......I'm not sure that many think that "Everyone maximising their self-interest promotes wellbeing" and the argument that "A look at the concept of information asymmetry demonstrates how wrong-headed the idea of humans as perfectly rational economic agents is" is a good idea for a left wing publication since the same argument can be used against communism and socialism
I could go on to points 6 through 10 but I'm losing the will to refute the arguments of someone who is clearly a mental defective. |
Err .. the point "House price inflation is good for the economy and creates growth" was the proposition that he then argues against!
So you give up and trot out the "mentally defective" summary .. inspired debating technique! Maybe Mother T use this strategy in the upcoming EU talks
