    "content": "sources of revenue and figures, we would be more useful to this country. We should not just say that the budget is fine because there were many good things in it but, after a week, we discover that we are not too sure where the money will come from. At that point, we start saying that the budget is bad. So, this is exactly why I insist that we must get a way of tying up those stages together. There must be a string that ties them from level one up to the stage when we are raising revenue. Beyond that, we need to look at why there has been a lot of uproar in the last two years. If the traditional sources of revenue were working before and there were no issues, what is it that we need to do to work around them such that we do not go the creative ways that are bringing in a lot of issues and things that people do not understand, and particularly, when you get into the communication industry where there are a lot of new things? When you move in to look for revenue across it, there are many things that will tie you to be at war with the young people. Those are things that we really need to look into. Regarding the issue of revenue, there are things that you can avoid and the nation needs to be told. You can avoid taxes, but you cannot evade them. What is it that you can avoid? For example, not everybody pays taxes on beer. It is up to those who consume it. You can avoid that. When you get into other avenues where things that are not conducive and good for you are brought, then you can have the space not to get into them. That is exactly what I am saying."
