Today 5%, tomorrow 10% and so on, until eventually there is nothing left for the civilian economy.

welcome to the big show, where debt brakes are judiciously enforced for social spending for 15 years and immediately suspended for lockheed's big bertha

it's the perfect plan: you vaporise welfare spending and make some quick cash on the way out via defence stocks, with the potentially outstanding bonus of sending a few million troublemakers head first into a meat grinder next decade and all this in one masterful stroke
