[QUOTE="iluvatar5150, post: 75968095, member: 313046"] What are you talking about? Companies run surpluses so that they can distribute those profits to shareholders. The government doesn't have shareholders - it's supposed to do stuff with the money it takes in. If it's running surpluses, then it's either taking in too much money or it's not doing enough stuff. Charities aren't supposed to run big surpluses, either. If they are, it means they're not using their donations for their intended purposes. [/QUOTE]
