Dear Friends, all,
In regard to the following, I wonder how much canada 'spends' on interest on
Federal, Provincial (and etc?) debts?
Here in the UK:
€ for every £1 spent on the National Health Service (the heath care
provision for the over-whelming majority)
€ 50 pence is paid out as interest on the National Debt.
(HM Treasury figures 'Budget 1999' leaflet - Debt Interest £26billion,
Health £61billion.)
Is this nuts, or what ?? !!
Hugs

And the BTW -
!999 Corporation (ie Company Tax) collected at £30billion is almost the same
as that paid out in Debt Interest !!
