I hope the answer to both of those is a big no. The point of these are to get the country in the black and keep it there so that the government can support the economy effectively when it needs to again. This means not throwing 49% of GDP at public spending while taxing less than 40%.
This is purely rolling back the growth of the state between 2006-7 and now, not stripping to the bone to the point where the country can't operate anymore.
Not that scary public spending going back to 2006-7 levels despite Comrade Crow's calls for civil disobedience and mass action.
