...so let us look at our "national assets" make them revenue generating assets...but keep them.
...and back to the silly wholesale laying off of public sector workers?
Given the realities of population growth, limitations on pace of maximizing efficiency and increased production of/from our people: If the aim is increased efficiency and production...is not making each work more efficient and productive the best option can you starve, for example, our health services of adequate funding?
...and on and on....
How then starving our schools of more and better teachers - the right thing to do?
How then putting more of our fellow citizens on the unemployment lines - the right thing to do?
If economic growth is our aim - how then is suppressing employment figures and therefore removing appreciable spending ability from the economy?
If economic growth is our aim - how then can it be slowing demand and noise on and about expanding businesses and increasing start-ups be in the same sentence?
How do you come to the conclusion the gov't is starving the schools of teachers?
