  • Open on mastodon.scot

Resident of Scotland. Cares about and for the Environment (esp. the wet bit). Trying not to hate; but deeply offended by right-wing idiotology and the stupidity of Brexit. Je me reste un citoyen Européen. We need a worldview that's wider than money; because living on this planet means we're part of a complex system of relationships that supports all life - not just H. sap.

Also: I have a bus pass and I'm not afraid to use it! (We get them early in Scotland...) 😉

@ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk "Facilitative of" could be used to enable the development & initial growth of innovative businesses; a "leg up", if you like. Once an enterprise has become viable, it should be encouraged to find alternative support. Large corporations (with a minimal experience of paying appropriate taxes) should not need grant-aid; especially those that are incorporated abroad to circumvent tax liabilities. An area I have difficulty with is food production; there is much for consideration there.

Replying to @ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk
@ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk It has long seemed to me that if a private business model requires continued support from government in the form of grants, tax exemptions or freedom from regulations in order to be successful or profitable, that business model is flawed. If an enterprise - e.g. the utilities, health care, housing - is frequently assisted by central government in order to maximise revenue or achieve profitability, then that business should be state-owned and state-operated.

Not Streeting, please!

@Nickiquote@mstdn.social What's really weird is that in not one of those 68 trillion cells that make up each of us (give or take the odd billion) can we find our mind. Which is mind-blo... Ah.

@talia_christine@beige.party Brava. I hope you don't mind; I've shared your comments - with which I wholeheartedly agree - elsewhere, in the hope that the amount of money sucked vampire-like from the world's economies by these leeches is reduced, if only by a little.
