And I'm sick of this argument we didn't vote to be poorer. Democracy makes us poorer all the bloody time. If we were simply about optimising wealth all government would do is provide the police and an army. We'd have no NHS, no pensions or any public services as we would simply follow an Adam Smith approach as it's more efficient. But the public votes to be poorer every election by wanting things like benefits, free healthcare etc. Ppl respect that democratic will even if it makes us all marginally poorer.
