How on earth did Britain manage to play itself so badly? I'm sure studies have been done and books have been written, but I'm currently too drunk to look them up.
Wages went up massively, though. But productivity didn't, and so the people weren't any richer, and prices went up to cover the increased wages. Then we had inflation, because everyone could afford to pay more. This economic boom among the semi-poor was called "inflation" and we were all told it was a bad thing and that wages had to plummet again. People are dumb enough that they believed the people who stood to profit from this lie. Coincidentally, that's exactly why Brexit happened too.
The workers want to make action men, so they do that. No one wants action men, but the workers live in their own bubble and they're used to it. They think they always have made them, and they look down on people that don't 'understand' it.
Management are more concerned about photo-ops. Occasionally, there's talk of making Barbie, but it ends up as just a dream that's made consultants a lot of money. So, our managers are around town, posing at charities and Tesco's where the action man still sells.
This naturally makes 0 sense of shareholders, what is this company even doing? Some shareholders believe if they can just make the right action man, things will be OK. Others see that action men don't sell, and want to make something else, like those Frey Bentos pies.
tl;dr - Civil service are obsessed with figures of muscular men so nothing happens.
It's easy to think the people that disagree with you are simply more gullible, but the pro-EU side was convinced that we wouldn't 'have enough' migrants without the EU. Few predicted it would stay high, or go higher. Saying 'People Are Idiots!' because they are basically forced to vote for colour of the tie for the perpetual Blair '97 government is cope for you to feel better.
