The province? This is a large, gray great-uncle, with bolknak, walking stick and a pair of glasses. And embonpoint, neatly dressed in a summer dress. On sunny birthday surprise the children with a little too expensive gift.
A beautiful watch, a beautiful doll’s house that barely fits in the playroom. What also is a need for them, but the celebrations have increased. Oubollig, robust, focused on the long term and for the nice things in life. A resting against the daily hustle and bustle of administrative counties and government.
Tsja. Then the government. That is more that the nephew and business banker after studying macro-economics, an MBA from Harvard and a postdoctoral accountancy is run in his BMW. He steals the show with the ladies with his well trained body tight suit and Rolex, and not a gift in itself. He ruined the party at the estate of the great-uncle by quite agree to cut the funding of that estate. Why has the great-uncle also has a small team of horses? Fun day for the people who visit the estate? But is it cost efficient? And that team is paid from the (future) legacy of the nephew?
These shoot me if I am within the opinion of the Council for Financial ratios (RFV) read stating that the provinces more than half billion (!) Less rich allowance need to complete their tasks to perform. Because the other incomes of the provinces (such as income and dividends from shares, surtax of the car) the past ten years so increased, that the rijksbijdrage something less possible. This is nice in these times of crisis, do you think the Ministry of Finance.
Underlying problem is that it’s rather unclear why the provinces on earth. The task of the government is clear: to ensure that Prince smoothly. The counties and clear task: to pick up dirt and grass of the park mowing. But the provinces? The RVF that the province “the first public ‘(is) on the spatial-economic domain. In that area, they have also proven their value. ”
Ok. Industrial plans and provincial roads are maintained tasks that should happen, so give the great-uncle therefore this task. But he then merely. And not all kinds of fun things to do there, the nephew cum RFV: ‘The growth of the financial resources of the provinces in recent years a maze of co-financing arrangements and agreements made. But there are also specific benefits provided by the government were insufficient for the task to the provinces to pay. The youth is one example. Examples of contributions from the provincial government to be co-financing under the Investment Budget countryside, contribute to industrial and provincial contributions to national roads. ”
That annoying MBA slangy nephews learn that the auditor training that they have to unlearn. But the skilled reader to understand here that the great-uncle very much ‘fun’ has been arrested because he swims in the money.
Of course, the great-uncle not an analysis of the RVF and now his own analysis, which will be shown that the financial surplus to the provinces is significantly lower. The great-uncle, this game is going to lose, because of that annoying educated MBA nephews (and nieces, of course) is that their models and – techniques always right, even if they do not.
And frankly, I think that is unfortunate. Every family needs a rich great-uncle, who brings some peace in the daily hectic and family problems in the background dissolves. Who pays the debts of the black sheep in the family? And who the team with horses, where the day as people like to watch?
