I believe in and support balanced budgets. And that might mean some things get *gasp* cut or delayed. Or maybe it means they find more economic ways to accomplish things.
Even the current government supported this. They not only told us, they brought in a
law stating they would run balanced budgets.
However what they have been doing is relying on the Royalty surplus year after year to make up the difference of what was lacking in the
known and regular revenue.
And now what do they do to correct this imbalance? They propose to change their own law so they can take us into debt and continue their out of control spending.
