What I meant is that earlier I credited her for nothing more than stating the party line on state financing while discounting all the deficit talk as trying to win political points.
Which might have been an error since I don't know who the driving force behind the proposals was.

Her doctoral advisor seems to be an expert on the labour theory of value so that might also be a possibility.
