It Could Have Been Worse… if the Liberal Democrats had NOT been in the Government

Obviously the Tories alone would have been worse, but nonsense like:

And this tax they would raise. From whom? Not on "ordinary" people, says Mr Johnson and Johnson, newly minted Economics for Dummies reader. But as Lady GoreGore points out: they'd only tax the EXTRA-ordinary people, the best and brightest, the ones who found the companies and make the inventions, create the music and win the prizes. Great strategy for growth, you've got there Mr Johnson and Johnson.

This is nothing more or less than the same vile nonsense about the wealthy being entitled to their money that mouth-breathing libertarians over here love so much. I've been reading about the situation in the UK and it looks remarkably similar to the situation here - the greedy rich and their puppets claiming that austerity for the poor and middle class is necessary, because otherwise they might be able to afford all three of their yachts. I'm remarkably unimpressed with the liberal democrats, they look a whole lot like ambitious sellouts.
