A budget surplus occurs when the government collects more revenue than it spends. Options for using a surplus include reducing taxes, providing financial support to help citizens manage living costs, or investing in public services like healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Proponents argue that these measures return benefits to citizens, stimulate the economy, and improve quality of life through increased public investment. Opponents argue that surpluses should be saved or used to pay down debt to prepare for future economic downturns.

Yes and no, they should support these things somewhat but also these supluses need to be used on long term country improvements.
@9ZLMJ2Q1wk1W
Should have a choice to accept the tax cut or instead select where you want the equivalent funds to go
@9ZL7RNZ1wk1W
Supports for cost of living should only be be given to people who work, who have disability’s and require care, those who are careers and those who are single parents.
@9ZKQBNQ1wk1W
Should be used to provide more multi unit houses that only first time buyers can purchase, should be used for medium transport infrastructure
@9ZK2FHV2wks2W
These are 2 different things and should not be lumped together. Public services should be funded by budget surplus.
@9ZJWFDD2wks2W
to a degree. it should also fund defense, national autonomy, housing, sovereignty, large emergency funds and self-sufficiency.
@9ZJGTL52wks2W
It should fund infrastructural development as well. Otherwise it's a plaster being put on a gaping wound.
@9ZJ6XYR2wks2W
I think the surplus should be divided between investment in public services and bracing for economic downturn
