Description[?]:
| Finance Minister, Jerome Renwood, proposes to adjust the government's spending budget to better address the economic and social situation of the Sovereign County of Beluzia. We have allowed private schools and private transportation industries. We want to leave most of environment and tourism to the private sector. We believe Education & Health are equally important, and combined, we have given them a budget of 50,000,000,000. Education was 30,000,000,000, and Health was 20,000,000,000; we brought both numbers to 25,000,000,000 by cutting Education by 5,000,000,000 and adding that to Health. By increasing our spending in Trade/Industry, Foreign Affairs, Finance, and Technology, we hope to increase our income so we can spend more on Education, Health and Defence. We are cutting government spending in: - Internal Affairs (by 25%) - Infrastructure & Transport (by 37.5%) - Education & Culture (by 16.7%) - Environment & Tourism (by 50%) We are increasing government spending in: - Foreign Affairs (by 87.5%) - Finance (by 100%) - Defence (by 33.3%) - Justice (by 25%) - Health & Social Services (by 25%) - Science & Technology (by 650%) - Food & Agriculture (by 275%) - Trade & Industry (by 100%) |

| Message | Read the bill description; I stated why I cut it. We're allowing private schools alongside public ones. It's not strictly "Education" that is being cut. We are cutting the republican culture sects. We will increase spending again when we can define a culture for the monarchy. |
