You could use the same argument these socialist communist types who continually argue it's better than capitalism.

Who’s arguing? It’s a question that apart from a week link hasn’t been answered.

Good or bad depends on your perspective. It was actually a good idea for the economy, but he's had to realise the plebs won't have it due to their blinkered, lack of understanding of economics. Unfortunately, in politics, making the right decision isn't as important as making the popular decision. He had two choices, educate a massive chunk of the population, or give in and think of something less difficult for the masses to understand.

So do you think he made a u-turn based on public opinion? I thought it was more likely to be the mp's, investors and economists who voiced their opinion against the tax cut that made him back track. I don't know though so I'm willing to be educated.
