We can also draw on lessons of the past as to what not to do in response to a major economic shock. In this case, I can draw on the experiences of my own life. As the economic carnage of the 1980s and 1990s wreaked havoc in our communities, I saw that up close. It was based on a tired set of ideas that the market would save us, that if the Government sat on the sidelines all would be well. Well, it didn't work out that way and lives and livelihoods were lost. That will not happen; not on the watch of this Government.
