Cameron desperate to lose ?

A deficit, where used for investment which yields greater return is good...

No, there is NO GOOD DEFICIT in Govt.

There never was.

PROFICIT is good.

Live within your means. Or go bankrupt.

It's the grand coalition in Germany that's balanced the books.

Works well, because it allows the government to ignore the inevitable nutcases you have in any party so ministers can just focus on getting their jobs done.

Germany got sensible people, even if you look at the unions there they are working with the management in the interest of business. When was the last underground workers strike in Berlin?

I agree mostly with your point but you've used a very bad example. I would also not be using anyone in the airline industry.

You are still not listening. Try Economics for dummies

Whilst a surplus is mostly preferred to a deficit long term investment via a deficit can be very very positive.

You have been listening to too many Sun headlines!!

Yes it CAN BE, but in case of Govt it almost always waste of money - corruption and incompetence, Govt simply can't be trusted with long term investments of YOUR MONEY (be it via debt to repay for future generations or taxes now).

You have been listening to too many Sun headlines!!

I never read the Sun even when I get the chance to flick through it.
