Representative Scott (R-Andover) asks Democrats why they blew the $18 billion surplus on pet projects instead of upgrading critical IT infrastructure: "For the love of all things obvious, why, when we had an $18 billion surplus, didn't we fix this problem? We've known it's existed for a very, very...

We have a huge infrastructure spending backlog in Tshwane, especially in townships including in Hammanskraal. For years, our spending on infrastructure has lagged behind the city’s population growth. Many capital projects, for roads and storm water, were cancelled by the previous administration. We have taken a decision to correct this problem by allocating funds for infrastructure projects. In the draft budget 2026/27 we have set aside R2,8 billion for infrastructure projects with an increase to R3,5 billion in the following year. #TshwaneIDP City of Tshwane

A House Democrat opposed our bill to cut tab fees this week, asking where the money would come from. After raising taxes by $10 BILLION, growing government by over 40%, and blowing an $18 BILLION surplus… maybe it could have come from there. Now families are stuck paying for it instead.

This actually happened. 2022. California Governor Gavin Newsom announces that California has the biggest state budget surplus in American history. Newsom: "No other state in American history has ever experienced a surplus as large as this." Gavin proposed returning some of the money to the people. With everything being so unaffordable in California, people were happy to be getting a few dollars back from the state. The only problem? It was all a lie. The $97.5 billion surplus was a four year projection that Newsom's people based on faulty revenue assumptions. In 2024 Newsom's team quietly put out a revision that said the 2022 projection of a $97.5 billion surplus was off by $165 billion. The biggest surplus in American history was actually a massive deficit. Absolutely on par for Gavin Newsom.

.President Donald J. Trump on Minnesota: Walz is a dirty, crooked politician. The Attorney General is a crooked guy. They say $19 billion is missing. If we would solve half of the fraud problem in this country, we would have more than a balanced budget. We would have a surplus.

"When social media first started rising, we didn't necessarily realize how much of that was actually just foundational infrastructure for the future of humanity.” Ben Fielding of gensyn on why AI is about to repeat the mistake social media made, and how we can still fix it: "This isn't just a product that you chat with. It's actually new fundamental infrastructure for humanity, and we should build that learning from the lessons from before. If we let a single company build AI, they hold an enormous amount of power in the world." "If you actually distribute that out and provide it in a kind of sovereign way — it's on all of our own devices and we own it — then actually you steer the world in a very different social direction."

I didn't like very big budget deficits. I thought often when people quoted Keynes about it not always being necessary to balance things one year with another, they always took the deficit years and forgot the years you in fact had a surplus so you had a balance over time. So deficits rose and rose. We got in. I was determined to tackle public expenditure. It was tough. Of course, we had a recession in 1981 and it went up but only very slightly because we were being very tough. In fact, I did the whole Falklands campaign without any increase in expenditure because we had the contingency reserve and that was adequate. At the end of my time, in the last four years, we had a budget surplus: We were able to redeem debt. Now, you don't get that without trying to be tough the whole time. There were some people who said, "Oh we've had a tough time. Consolidate. Don't you think you ought to be more generous to people?" I said, "With who's money?" And so, I left four years' surplus.

Arteta on the players battling a physical strain: “Yes, but when I see them track back, when we lose the ball and the habits that they have, it's just amazing. That's why I know what they are doing, these players. There is a reason why we are the only English team in the competition, because this league and this schedule takes the hell out of you and it's very difficult to do what we've done. “We are not perfect, we need to improve things, that's for sure, we recognise that, but let's value what these players have done because they deserve it.”
