From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Shadow Budget proposal of December 2619 | Message | We do not support any further cuts in Defense or Science and Technology. The Foreign and Internal Affairs Ministries do not need any more funds, they have a sufficient amount. |

From | Holy Eliyahu Confession | To | Debating the Shadow Budget proposal of December 2619 | Message | im not saying that this is a comprehensive response, but moderate tax increases combined with spending restraint is a tax policy we find more acceptable than current policy.
as for Science and Technology, the current directives essentially make Science and Technology oyr Defense investment #2, and cutting it in order to fund education makes more sense to me. |

From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Shadow Budget proposal of December 2619 | Message | Science and Technology has nothing to do with Defense. The money given to Science is used to fund our space agency and scientific research. Defense-related research is paid by the Defense Ministry not the Science and Technology Ministry. |
