        That's a good post Dhavlos - I agree with you. I apologise for the drunken post made last night which really contradicts the way I feel about the support for the club from all over the world.

        I'm pretty fed up with the ticket office and the club shop at the moment but this shouldn't have resulted in such a stupid post.
        Fair dues to you mate

        To be honest I wasn't sure if your original post was genuine or tongue-in-cheek.

        I think we all have grievances with the way the ticketing and marketing is being run by the club and no one will blame you for lashing out at that.

          Cheers mate. I'm still disappointed with myself for posting that though.

          I'd much rather see football fans all over the world wearing Liverpool shirts and being proud to support the club rather than following ManUre or Chelksi.
          Phew.

          Don't take life too seriously or you'll never get out alive.

            Thanks mate. I appreciate that.

              Where should I start? Since you brought up the "Tories" (I'm guessing you mean Thatcher's administration?), I will talk briefly about Thatcher's economic policies and then go back to your friend's fundamental question about whether the policies allowed the elite to exploit the under-privileged.

              Without going into too much detail, I will outline the major economic policies that were behind the so called "Thatcherism":

              - Commitment to freeing up the market
              - More focus on monetary policy to control inflation
              - Allow for more public ownership (in shares and assets)
              - De-regulation of certain industries to bring more competition and increase efficiency
              - Reduce the size of government
              - Reduce the power of trade unions

              All the above were ideas strongly advocated by Milton Friedman well before the early 80's when there was a wide polarization of opinion. Now, the above ideas are accepted in almost every economics department in the world. If you disagree with the any of the policies above, then you are disagreeing with virtually the entire economics profession. The ideas should be clear to anyone (Econ major or not) who has taken Econ 101.

              Let me know if you disagree with any of the above polices, I'll be more than happy to explain it for you.

              Look Sonny, I studied Economics when you were suckling your mum's nipples so give the patronising Econ 101/"I'll explain it to you" a rest, eh?

              Friedman wasn't orthodoxy then (if he still is) so we read a little more widely than you appear to have done.

              .
              Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



              May the Lord bless this post.

                Well, I was an Econ major too. That's great then. Tell me what you find wrong in my argument. Why not start with the policies that I mentioned above. Tell me what you find wrong with those policies.

                  Sure, another time, and perhaps another thread. My daughter's here so I'm going to talk to her if you don't mind.

                    Fair enough.

                    I'll be waiting for your response.

                    And I prefer that you do it on this thread.

                    Thank you.

                          You were an Econ major too?

                          You be the moderator of our forthcoming Economics debate. How about that?
