Yes but businesses when their profits drop reduce costs and the first cost they reduce is wage bills.
It's text book paradox of thrift
There will be a time to look at CT but as has been stated already it's not wise to raise any tax in a recession dur to the demand reduction it will create.
This is coming across as a Corbynista/Starmastan back your guy no matter what thing.
@shmmeee @David O'Day as you two are both seemingly very pro Starmer are there any areas where you think he's been weak so far and you'd like to see improvements?

@clint van damme anywhere you feel he's doing well?
My biggest issue with his leadership at the moment is that I feel he doesn’t have the ideas for the radical approach that will be needed in a post Cov-ID world. I saw John McDonnell on Sky this morning talking about how UBI isn’t so much of a leap from where we’ve been with furlough. McDonnell knows his stuff, is a good orator (the kind lacking from Kier’s shadow cabinet and even G was impressed by him at one point I remember) - is it really necessary to ostracise him like some kind of pariah when he could be helping to shape a progressive financial policy - even if it is from the shadows. Time to look forward - we seem to be in 2010-15 Groundhog Day situation right now.
Positives - as much as I don’t like it personally, going on things like LBC is a good move. That’s where you got to get your message out, but he should be more assertive on it.
tbh the main aim should be get the Conservatives a small majority, so they look a fractured government. Obviously they can't say that... and Corbyn did that hard work, only to lose it all after!This shows the mountain to climb

Tories should be pushing for Scottish independence
Doesn’t Trump hold the record for dropping the most bombs in a single term in office?It's pretty quiet on here regarding Biden's Syria activity.

Besides, are you seriously telling me if it had have been British personnel that had been attacked we wouldn’t have retaliated having identified where the attackers are?
It's pretty quiet on here regarding Biden's Syria activity.
Well. I didn’t for the last four years so you’re not even remotely close. Although you have made a very good fist of doing exactly what you’re trying to accuse me of. Not said anything about Trumps bombing campaigns but straight on it when Biden orders a strike.Hahahaha.
If this was Trump you would be all over it, not trying to wash up some shitty justification.
Hahahaha.

The point of Biden wasn’t to make everything perfect. I’d imagine for most of the left Biden is pretty far particularly in terms of foreign policy from what they’d want.
The Point of Biden was to be better and frankly less dangerous than Trump. He is.
The kids in cages still sucks, the bombing the ME still sucks. I’d guess most on here would rather it was Bernie, but there we are. Politics is the language of compromise.

I don't care for either Trump or Biden.
I just think the double standards lose you credibility.
A bit Like how you’re dead against it ‘but had it been Trump‘ you’d be all for it.Hahahaha.

The double standard you A. Invented and B. Used yourself.I don't care for either Trump or Biden.

If Trump had have been faced with the rise of a caliphate like IS he’d have been involved in a new conflict. He’d have to have been, it’s as simple as that. Trump faced decisions in his opening months just like Biden has, in fact IIRC Trump responded by dropping the most powerful bomb in history aside from the 2 nuclear bombs that were dropped on Japan. As you say some of it is organisations testing a new regime and the same commentators now saying look he’s starting new wars, would have been accusing him of being a weak president had he done nothing. Total straw man argument.Thee problem is once a war is in progress getting out of it isn't easy. The attack on the US personnel was a test to see what he'd do so it's not quite as simple as just backing the actions of your favourite candidate.
The test for Biden will be if he can not start any new conflicts which to be fair to Trump he didn't.
they're all psychos internationally, Trump was a psycho domestically though as well.
I've not had a lot great to say about Biden throughout this thread but I'm convinced he'll be a massive improvement on Trump, though the bar is about as low as it gets.

For me the climate is the big thing. Trump was a conspiracy theorist who likely didn’t even believe in climate change and if he did would never understand it. The states can really push forwards on things like renewables and electric transport now. And then everyone can start putting pressure on China.
You obviously do hence bringing up standard US foreign policy as some kind of gotcha against the man that replaced him.

Anyone wanting to take the Trump moral high ground really should choose their battles better because in terms of military action you have to go back to Regan to find anyone who gives Trump a run for his money. And we’ve had 2 new wars in Iraq and 1 in Afghanistan since then. Considering he was supposed to be a piece time president, holy shit he was hungry for a fight.
He doesn't...Do you think people have to come on every time something happens?
Really hit a nerve on this thread.
Should have known people would try and defend Biden's actions because 'Trump was worse'.
I'll leave you lefties to it.
