But I am just wondering when did we ever cut 380 billion from our budget? cos if I remembered correctly, we only cut from the projected increase instead of amount from the previous budget. Still paints a clear picture of what we are facing in this country, the young people are going to be left holding the bag while the older generation are going to die comfortably and stress free.

And ofc tax breaks for everyone should stop now, we are all in this together and we must cut and tax our way out of it
