@PowerCrazy Also, while some local councils are intentionally neoliberal, most are just trying to survive.
Central government does of course force them to take the neoliberal solutions you describe. Because all other options are prohibited, impractical, or cannot be funded, due to the rules set down by central government.
Local government can be corrupt (so can central government), it can be incompetent (ditto).
But the villain here is the tories. It’s always the tories. And while they tend to control rural councils, they don’t control most of the cities.
@GBU_28 @Antigrav That depends on what you mean by physical property.
Is land physical property? What if it was stolen from the locals and passed down from the slaver father?
I’m not saying I support theft. I’m not saying all property is theft. But it’s more complicated than that.
