This is how the economy would have looked over the last decade if it weren't for a debt bubble and Labour employing a million people on the public purse. This is how the UK economy looks when the government is not borrowing relentlessly from the next generation to buy votes.
The cuts are, actually, going to take the state back to where it was in the mid 2000's, though of course this has been explained to you more than once.
The only conclusion is that you don't have the wit to think for yourself and are quite happy to believe what the red tops, specifically The Mirror, preaches at you.
This government is doing a lot of things wrong, it doesn't change that thanks to the utter joke the previous Labour government were with the economy, which I'm sure a man of your age knows is par for the course for Labour, whomever was in power would have been cutting. Labour's plan had almost identical cuts to the current government's, a minimal difference.
Incidentally while you're ranting away merrily government expenditure actually increased in both nominal and real terms compared to last year, but carry on, it's not like facts or reality have bothered you in the past so they're not likely to start now.
