Yes to budget cuts... in the right places

This poster of the Youth Movement of Deba explains it well: the problem is not budget cuts but budget cuts in the wrong areas (education, health care, social services, salaries, pensions...):



YES TO THE CUTS!
LET US CUT WHERE WE DO NOT NEED:
HIGH SPEED RAIL
POLICE FORCES
POLITICIANS' SALARIES
SUBSIDIES TO CORPORATIONS

They could have added stuff like the army, monarchy, European subsidies to aristocratic landowners, nuclear energy, etc. But with a Basque focus it seems good enough.

Needless to say that none of the mentioned areas have been touched at all by the austerity-for-the-poor policies promoted in Frankfurt, Brussels, Paris and Madrid.
