True. One reason for this is that the issue is wrongly framed as one of needing to raise money, when in fact the issue is how to cut consumer spending so as to release real resources for public spending & investment.

Danish Social democrats suffered a massive defeat in Copenhagen last night. They incurred similar defeats across the country and there will be a general election in the next year. In Copenhagen the far-left Enhedslisten (the unity list) won the most mandates followed by the socialist people's party.
