James is right. Deregulation hand-over-first with Clinton, Greenspan saying all the tools in place to prevent bad happening, Obama chose Keynes to save the world and got the country's money back with small profit. But look, look: the big boys are pushing deregulation hand-over-fist again. As for doing the electorate a favour by getting it to vote against its interests, all parties are good at it. It's manipulation of the electorate under the guise of managing its affairs.
