They didn't even ask if they knew how to make one, or actually did make one. In a situation like this politics comes down to "will the money be spent on what I want?" not, how can the country pay for x/y/z, and what is the prioritization of various projects.

Elections are next Saturday. The choice is between $5k per year less in tax (for me), or no change (because budget surplus under current govt. would be 'targetted'(i.e. given) to families.... i.e. handed back to ppl on the dole(unemployment benefit that people can stay on for life, and for generations) that lie around pumping out children) guess which side I'm on :P
