Thank You
This is a nice piece of work. Thanks. On this side of the pond, I'm saddened to know that 14 percent of American households (17.5 million households) are food insecure. If you don't know the definition of what that means, look it up. The income gap may be wider and growing faster here than in Britain.
I hope to the lord god that many in the UK, and in America, believe what I feel is a truly important idea in the article: "I'm very much a believer in the idea that rather the point of this whole having an economy thing is to make poor people better off." I firmly agree that you can be a capitalist and a greater democrat at the same time. It's been a few thousand years, but one "enlightened" philosopher knew this a long time ago, "An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics." ...Plutarch
