So what is the holistic budget? Simplistically put, it is a budget which addresses all of the implications of a problem, and not just its symptoms. There’s no point in me paying a lot of money for medicine to cure a bellyache, if I don’t invest money in proper food. Otherwise I just keep paying out for medicine.
You get the drift, I’m sure.
I’m going to try to avoid blaming politicians or anyone else for the state of the country, and simply concentrate on the issue.
The posts will not be definitive, and hopefully won’t preach from on high. It’s an experiment, exploring possibilities. It could alternatively have been titled “Leap into the Dark!”
I hope my first proper post will be on the topic of “free” transport. I sketched this in a previous incarnation of this blog, the forum alternative party. Keen observers will note that the url for that (failed) experiment has been recycled.
