Proponents of deficit reduction argue that governments who do not control budget deficits and debt are at risk of losing their ability to borrow money at affordable rates. Opponents of deficit reduction argue that government spending would increase demand for goods and services and help avert a dangerous fall into deflation, a downward spiral in wages and prices that can cripple an economy for years.

@9FCRS9F1yr1Y
Have you seen grease y’all need to cut your spending.
@9DD8K221yr1Y
Yes, but only cut useless services
@9BSVF2F2yrs2Y
No cuts in public spending but end tax evasion by lowering the income tax for the poor and increasing it for the rich at a threshold of around 100.000€ for example
@9BS3N8B2yrs2Y
No I think the taxation system should be changed so more people and corporations go by it. As a result the government will have another resource for money.
@9BN6B4J2yrs2Y
No, just make sure to take better care of where the money goes.
@8XJ2VLR3yrs3Y
