Gahment spending for pro-family measures will rise from $1.6B to $2B. Whos going to pay for all this?? Wheres the funding going to come from? Gahment can just pump $B spending here and there without going through budget discussion....just like the $B surprise annoucements on the spending on new buses. Don't get me wrong...I am supportive of the new measures....but I be damned if I am going to pay a single cent more taxes to fund this. Gahment can announce $B spending on whatever initiatives it wants....since they have total control, but they should not later ask for more taxes,more COEs, more ERPs...etc to fund all these. If they want to fund all these stuff, they have to cut from other things..starting with Minister's (and all down the line) salaries, defence spending ...etc.
