The government must not heed to protests by Unions and ignorant masses. The people have to adjust their lifestyle to the current situation by spending less and tighten their belt.

The earlier we all accept that there is nothing called a free lunch the better it will be. The bloated public/state service(s) is definitely acknowledged, and hopefully measures will be taken to right size and optimize it. However the reality is that will take time and just cannot happen in the short-term.

The politicians and the bloated govt sector is the cause of our current economic status.
80% of the govt employees are a burden to the tax payers and general public
