There are some really good things in the budget:
- getting rid of 19K employees,
- improve schools and infrastructure on Indian reserves,
- various tax changes,
- innovation in science/technology by using grants and matching funds,
- budgetary surplus within a few years, and
- purchasing from small businesses.
Shocking items:
- doing away with the one cent coin (What will welders use to space the steel?)
- no mention of avoiding use of that other OS to save hundreds of $millions annually … 🙁
Well, there’s nothing quite like getting rid of 19,000 useless government employees whose basic crime is that they are not blighting the lives of Native Americans in Manitoba by forcing a useless “skill” like Linux down their gullet, is there?
I’m all for this. Money isn’t important.
Let’s punish the guilty, shall we?
