Size of budget contradicts claims of empty treasury, says Jagdeo

By , August 12, 2015, Source

 

 

Former president Bharrat Jagdeo has criticised the size of the proposed national budget, saying that while the APNU+AFC administration has been claiming that the former government left the country bankrupt, it is now planning to spend more than what was spent last year.

 

“For the past two months, they have been making the case that the country is bankrupt, that the country is totally bankrupt…,” Jagdeo told a news conference at Freedom House yesterday.

Jagdeo is a fool and a loser. What kind of an economiss is he? Does he not knowa bout deficit budgets? He should go and make noise in the National assembly where his idiotic cries can be dealt with.

What are the sources of budget inflows again....cash on hand? We are eternally in debt so the PPP claiming they left money is a laugh. And it is poor people taxes that mainly fund the state. The government need to go after the fat cats hiding their books or keeping duplicate.

 

Jagdeo learned economics from Lumimba U and I guess he picked up his lying ways in his genetic line somewhere because nothing he ever say comes from a trusting place.

Issues will become clearer as time unfolds.

Perhaps!

Like you never borrowed money. Then again I don't think you want me to bring the NJ bar money story.
