Essentially, we still have very high debt levels. We hear about a recovering economy but would Mr. Moran agree that we have to be careful in terms of how we spend money? At budget time we have debates in the political sphere regarding how we spend money on cutting taxes and so forth, but as we still have a high level of debt compared with other countries would he agree that we need to be cautious?
