Open letter to newspapers - 13th Oct '09 |

Dear Editor,
Selling off Government assets is a poor way to regenerate the economy. I heard at least one economist say that selling off these assets is not a sensible way to raise money at this time. Borrowing at the rates the Government can get would be much more sensible. Then Government investment in real projects, which give a return and help to resolve other issues, would be possible.
