The reality is that the public sector grew because the private (or privatised) sector had already failed… The important thing is to concentrate really hard on backing people and ideas that can generate appropriate earned income for the people who need it most… Shrinking the state will not, in itself, inflate the private sector. That’s a myth. But socially responsible inflation of the private sector must be nurtured, right now, or the inevitable cuts in public services will leave millions abandoned.
