Message | How much more? I suggest we don't move more than another 8,000,000,000 BEL to Science so that we have a suitable surplus which can be moved to other areas in case of urgency, eg infrastructure. |

Message | UTC: I think that's a great place to start, I'll amend the bill to specify this. |

Message | OOC: Yes, I believe it might be under the "Economy" section but I'm not sure as I can't check without first creating a bill. |
Date | 21:44:57, November 10, 2016 CET | From | Libertarians of Beluzia | To | Debating the Investing in Science to utilise our profit margins |
Message | I don't believe seeing a surplus as a reason to spend more. I believe a surplus means we are taking to much without reason. A Balanced Budget is best. |
