| Soleron said: The problem with austerity is that what is politically safe to cut is cut first, not 'waste' or 'nice-to-haves'. For example, in my country this year they cut interview travel reimbursement for jobseekers, and crippled the budget for legal aid, but they continue to pursue a $50 billion single rail line, and construction of two aircraft carriers for which there are no suitable planes. True austerity has never been seen. |
Oh I don't argue with that.
Often times polticians will cut damn near essentials rather then cut worthless bullshit waste.
Even sttill... the austerity is needed.
