| Message | So you would have us increase foreign affairs, trade and industry, and justice spending five fold on the back of Head of Government and defense after two wars? |
| Date | 08:05:06, August 24, 2012 CET | From | Red Vanguard Dominion | To | Debating the Revised Economic Program (REP) - Budget |
| Message | The current Defense budget is bloated and painful. WHILE THE SOCIETY Personally disliked the drastic cut to Science and Technology, we hope to see vast improvements in other areas. FURTHERMORE The Head of State does not need to be, and should not be, paid such an enormous salary. Given the communist nature of Al'Badara, and the international respect of Jalal, he need not collect an annual check of 90 billion Badar. That is madness. FOREIGN AFFAIRS Spending increases will allow greater Vanguard Aid for struggling people's movements. HONESTLY Except for the Science and Tech cut and the Environment and Tourism raise, we agree 100% on this budget. WE APPROVE. |
