This must represent some old Siviet Block type mentality (or maybe education of bankers and economists in those years), since obviously the economic rationale for this kind of approach is truly slender, for the simply reason that it produces inflation, and this is what we absolutely saw in all the aforementioned countries, and what we didn’t see in Poland or the CR.

[BBC NEWS | Peston's Picks] BBC - Peston's Picks: We own Royal Bank: The FUNDAMENTAL problem with the UK NOW is the mis-allocation of resources - intellectual, financial and industrial - to entire sectors like banking, retail, housing (and all associated construction for e.g.) where there never was any fundamental growth, just trading of asset price appreciation between bankers / agents / advisors who then supported a false retail sector with phantom purchasing power spent on imported goods.

My feeling is that if a business is profitable , or close to it, they are more likely to know how to use the capital to their advantage than a startup would be.

Yet every day, we have like 4-5 people actually talk about them as if a million bucks for a totally mundane, small house is perfectly A-ok and somehow worth it for some stupid reason- like good schools, or something of the like.
