| Message | A relief would be nice, of course. If we abolished taxation altogether, it would be even better. Unfortunately, Telamon needs a strong economy and to do this we need the current budget surplus in order to invest it in the development of our economy! Stop trying to be "nice" to the general public by jeopardising our country's future! Minister of Finance Ottó Hilmarsson |
