They would have to show a real need for any projects befirethwir budget is approved. This stops government departments from finding useless projects just to “use their budgets” so they can get the same amount or more the next year.

Also, I’d counterthat the free market hasn’t failed, it’s never really been given a chance.

Second, they’re still a ridiculously right-wing fringe party that doesn’t represent my values in the least. So no, I’d never vote for them and I’ll campaign hard against them if I ever get the chance. The free market failed, move on.

Other than that, are you voting Wildrose Alliance?

Yes there are some stupid and inconsistent policies with the party. So why don’t you park your socialism, and help develop rational policy?
