I was amazed to see the wonder of Brian Cowen/Brian Lenihan in action today. Last December the 2 Brians finally faced up to the reality that the economy that they had created was disappearing down the tubes rapidly and they needed a plan.
"Hurray!", we shouted, "Finally!"
So, what was the plan? The plan was to create a so-called "Smart Economy".
"Hurray!", we shouted again, a little quieter this time, "What is it?", we asked.
What it is, is an "Economy" but with the word "Smart" before it. Apparently.
"Huh?", we wondered.
We'll get back to you on that.
Well now, 6 months later Cowen has got back to us to let us know that he has set up a task force to tell him what this Smart Economy is. Is this for real? These guys decide that the solution to the financial mess that they made is something called a Smart Economy but they don't even know what it is? In fact it takes them 6 months to get around to getting other people started on figuring out what it's supposed to be.
Does anybody actually know what the 2 Brians actually do?
