Some heavy ideology here. I wonder if the projects here have been cherry-picked to make a point.

  • It analyses in detail:

    * The R101 Airship
    * The groundnut scheme
    * Nuclear power
    * Concorde
    ...
    My own ’solution’ is simply: let the market work. To proceed with more large government quasi-commercial projects would be a recipe for further expensive disasters.
