Half way to Infinity
Yes, I would recognise some of that, apart from the “self evident” bit which is an assumption based on a narrative and not a self evident truth. A self evident truth is that a government such as ours that creates it’s own currency, cannot, as a matter of logic, run out of the thing it creates.I don't think it's question of people buying into "the Tory narrative that the public supplies government with money".
I suspect most people wouldn't regard it as a peculiarly Tory narrative but rather a self-evident truth and description of the classic economic model that generation of us, left, right, and centre, have been brought up on.
Whether there are viable alternative economic models which would actually make a difference is another matter and remains to be seen.
But it is the last paragraph that bothers me most. It seems to be an assumption that there is no alternative. We used to have an alternative. It was an alternative that enabled the NHS in the first place. It might just be worth another look?
