Indeed, the government must understand that wealth hinges on available resources, not financial limits. Policies should reflect this. Yet, the UK seems hesitant to utilise natural resources, develop housing/infrastructure, or encourage investment in capital or innovation. We've been rich and industrialised for so long we have forgotten that wealth isn’t created out of nothing. Our attitude towards fossil fuels is particularly indicative of this. Coal made this country an industrial superpower. We forgot that the key to our economic power started and will always start with energy -- and that this is often dirty. Today we a country of financial services and coffee shops, because we believe we are above the truly productive sectors of the economy.
