A Quote by John Delaney
All taxpayers feel a tremendous sense of frustration as they see many tens of billions of dollars of bonuses paid to the same mega banks that were on the brink of bankruptcy and were only saved by massive government rescue money and support. We are not satisfied by the fact that many of them have paid the money back, nor should we be.

People were paid lots of money to make stupid decisions, people in big banks, and when people are paid to be stupid they'll be stupid.

There was some sinister activity, but I think by and by it was people being incentivised to do the wrong thing.

We take those mothers who were patients who've had their babies, we bring them back, we train them, we pay them, to be health care professionals.

In our election manifesto is: we keep the right to create money and to bring in circulation, for the cause of the government ... Those who do not share this view, reply us to the issue of paper money is for the banks, the government should stay out of the banking business.
