Following the budget announcement in the UK, why is the media obsessed with the predicted growth being 0.2% lower, instead of applauding the much needed investment in our public services? Does it really matter that much?

      Good point and I missed that in the original post.

      It does appear to be a similar situation with the UK though, only with pensions and other funds.
