I RECKON THE BUSINESS SECTOR IS IN PANIC MODE BECAUSE OF THE LOOMING RECESSION..
GETTING THE PENSIONER TO LIQUIDATE THE HOUSE & MOVING IT ONTO THE MKT MUST INCREASE TURNOVER AND ALSO TRANSLATE TO MORE CONSUMPTION DEMAND -ON THE PART OF THE OLD FOLKS. MORE MONEY ON HAND= MORE SPENDING PROPENSITY
ECONOMICS 101
nb. forget about the "saving money for coffers" meme
cut the waste , wanton gov. spending & leakage$ and you save a bigggger wad of cash
or get the yyyuuge multinational firms to pay 2% of tax
