| Message | This will put us further into debt. If you want to end the deficit, taxs need to be increased slightly |

| Message | That is irrelevant. The point of cutting government spending is to cut existing expendures as to lessen the amount of deficit spending going into the economy, if anything, not cutting it will increase the rate at which we go into debt. Besides, this cuts the taxation on private companies, nationalized companies incomes go directly to the government, so it is independent from the government budget anyway. Increasing taxes just increase the amount of funds the government intakes, at the cost of the taxpayers. It doesn't do anything to eliminate the massive deficit. |
