The theme seems to be “reduce operating spending, increase capital spending”. We’ll see how that will blow over with the opposition.

Again, that's a fine and valid critique of the budget.

The fundamental flaw is equating corporate efficiency with public effectiveness...

This position however, does not seem valid when the budget is putting in more than it removes from actual public services, 51 billion v 13.

That part wasn’t a critique of the budget, it was a critique of your pitch for efficiency. You pivoted the discussion, I followed.

Maybe re-read what you reaponded to?

It’s pretty nonsensical to claim that because you’re providing a public good you can’t do so more effectively.

Nah I’m good dude, don’t have the energy, you can have this one.

Phew, I was thinking the same. I have no idea what you are trying to say.

Cheers.
