| Message | Total Change: 645,010,000,000 GAD pa Current Deficit: 202,902,638,283 GAD pa This will put us at a income of 442,107,361,717 GAD pa. The future if this passes: - I will aim over a series of changes over the next few years to return the 10,000,000 to the Head of Government via further cuts to internal affairs. - I will aim to move the 50,000,000,000 back to education and culture via small cuts to the health and social services sector. - I aim to increase spending in the Trade and Industry sector using the money from the increase in luxury goods tax (if it passes). |
| Date | 13:17:59, August 01, 2010 CET | From | The CFoG | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | I would also like to add that the increase in the non luxury goods tax will be put back into health and social services sector so that it feels minimal impact from the future proposed changes. |
| Date | 19:07:56, August 01, 2010 CET | From | Common Sense Conservatives | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | I would like to ask why does the head of government need so much, internal affairs doesn't need to be cut so we can give more to the Head of Government, it should be the other way around. |
| Date | 19:16:00, August 01, 2010 CET | From | The CFoG | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | Well at the moment it is just all being cut but I will take that on board... I hope to get spending to the same as it was just up our income. |
| Date | 05:46:52, August 02, 2010 CET | From | Northern Alliance | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | We will support this bill. We will support these tax increases as being permanent. That way we can afford to raise government spending later on. |
| Date | 05:48:46, August 02, 2010 CET | From | Northern Alliance | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | We support cutting the head of government budget to 100 to 80 million where it was before the several previous increases. |
| Date | 06:55:02, August 02, 2010 CET | From | Common Sense Conservatives | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2977 |
| Message | We feel if we can get spending under control we can use the surplus to cut taxes, not raise spending again (or to where it was before). We need to put more of the money into the hands of the people. Raising taxes just to raise spending is absoutly iresponsible on the government's part. |
