RELATED
Each boom over the decades has been engineered using the
same methods. There is runaway printing of money at
home, and runaway borrowing of dollars from abroad.
With the economy flush with liquidity, what follows is a
consumption binge that leads to a blowout in imports while
exports lag. This consumption binge is presented by the
rulers of the day as their signature achievement. Every
government since at least 1998 has come into power saying
‘we inherited a broken economy’. Every government since
then (with the exception of the PPP in 2008) has left power
arguing ‘while we were ruling the economy grew, but when
our rule was replaced by somebody else’s, the economy
suffered’.
