cut pension, civil servants & pensioners come after u
cut bumi privileges, bumi come after u
cut fuel subsidy, motorist come after u

so at the end, nothing can cut, all status quo

n USA, George W Bush caused the US debts increased from USD5 Trillion (Yr 2000, since 2 centuries ago, from 42 presidents) to USD10 Trillion (2008).

Next, Mr Obama caused the debt increased to USD20 Trillion (in 8 years, 2016).

The last 6 years, debt climbed From USD20 Trillion to USD31.5 Trillion.

With this debts, reaching the ceiling, the economy of USA is critically bankrupt if not collapsed.

SO, in Malaysia the initiative to contain/controlling the debts from going higher is very important.

With such a huge debts from the US gov...just like if you have several millions of loans and when each RM10 can only get one teh tarik, then your debts of millions will look not so threatening. Then, probably your lands/house now can fetch double the price. And debts now is looks easy for you. WHY? Inflation!

With such a high debt level, you need inflation...but may not be successful because there are other side effects on the economy when you have caused the inflation.
