My dersire to write this book is best explained by a true story. My father was a butcher. He never took a course in economics. Yet sitting in his car just before the 1987 British election he told me that he woluld not vote Labour. I inquired why he would not. Because, said my father, "once is fir enough, but it never works. It just means prices go up. They'll try it again and prices will be none left for the schools and the hospitals, so they will have to borrow. But because there will be less money for everyone else. This means we will all have to pay more on loans and such things, so people will have less money to spend. The less people in work. If the Tories get in again, They'll cut taxes, people will spend more, and there will be more jobs.'
