The budget should be balanced,
the treasury should be refilled,
public debt should be reduced,
the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed,
lest Rome become bankrupt.
People must again learn to work,
instead of living on public assistance.
Cicero, 55 BC
It’s budget time again. Where is Cicero, when you need him?!
