  The Cedi went mad. 2013 should see a steep withdrawal of all subsidies from goods and services to slow growth and realign the economy. Now or never. The West went bust bcos of subsidies through credit cards and mortgages

  Why then did you increase the number of MPs and also want to increase their salaries? I think we have useless care takers.

  During the last election, NDC forced its way by creating more constituencies without telling us how those MPs are going to be paid. It has come to light that those MPs have no seat in the parliament house and just image how disgraceful that is.
  
  A small like ours, we should cut our coat according to our size by using revenue generated. We should embark on a gradual approach and something will be done than going for huge loans with interest which at times, comes with some stupid instructions from the borrower.
  
  Our leaders are stupid to the core.

  We must curb imports and increase exports to improve our balance of payments.
  
  We must continue to rstionalise our tax system and spread the tax net wider so as to increase tax revenue.
