If we'd tackled this in 1972 with CoR and Stockholm then by 1973 we'd perhaps be setting up the comprehensive new mechanisms. Growth would never have become a decoy since the new system would provide for GDP growth, in contrast to the old mechanisms undermining potential for growth. <br /><br />However his never happened. It was easier to talk about growth, targets and new indicators than to look for new mechanisms. It remains so today, except the decoy issue of growth became a blocking filter for proposals on mechanisms. Any proposed mechanism that enables growth gets ignored (including mine!) http://blindspot.org.uk/seven-policy-switches/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12992735463225498581noreply@blogger.com
