They are saying that we have a revenue problem because resource revenue is down this year. I am saying that the first 6.5 billion is a spending problem. If they could save the spending then we would be able to put away billions in resource revenue every time there is a year where the revenues aren't terrible.

We can argue about how much should be saved, but it is hard to do when so much is being spent.
