TELEGRAPH 4.11.09 1. 0 Every family in the country is now facing a tax liability of 0 to prop up Britain0 the biggest bail-out in history. By Robert Winnett, Edmund Conway and Harry Wallop The Chancellor confirmed that the Government would pump an extra 0 the only way to keep the business alive. Taxpayers have poured a total of 0 the 0 that was set aside as insurance against further trouble in the future. In total, the Government has put 0 the banks, including RBS, Lloyds and HBOS, since the start of the financial crisis last year. Note: Utterly mad. The taxpayer takes on heroically dangerous obligations without exercising meaningful control over the banks, both those they have a stake in and the rest who are hiding behind the assurances of the British state. The only clean way of dealing with the situation is to nationalise the lot, not just temporarily, but as a matter of policy so that the state regains control of the money supply. The nationalised banks would have to be placed under strict legally enforceable restrictions on what they could do to prevent politicians corrupting their behaviour for electoral advantage and to ensure the extension of loans to business and individuals where it was objectively reasonable to do so, for example, a mortgage based on 3 times earnings with a 15% deposit. Nationalising the banks would not mean that companies could not raise money privately. They could do this through such vehicles as rights issues and bonds. There would also be a place for private capital lenders who took deposits and loaned out only the money deposited with them.
