| Message | We shouldn't be so quick to do this. The Country has operated a surplus of varying degrees for over a century, it is right that we return some of this money to the population. Moreover, with the current rate of growth within our economy the increase of some 20% could well stall that growth increasing unemployment within the Country. A smaller increase, whilst utilising those already saved reserves would allow for the current expenditure levels to be maintained whilst also not making such an impact of the industrial heart of the Country. |
