Money is too make money! Spending money on a movie will create more money, in tax maybe they can then do both? don’t forget unless we make a good pic here less companies will make movies here, the more movies made here the more tax for Chemo? Available?. We all have a budget, but if the government go broke we are the ones that will have to pay? The governments budget is more than 300 billion, each year, if they stop giving it away each year they will actually make a profit, so we can pay less tax, that’s the problem with governments, unless they spend all their budget they have too give some back?

Oh my dear you must be so very strong to even keep standing with what you have been through over the years' it gets to a point that you get so used to one tragedy after the other that you face it 'get that numb feeling' and carry on regardless.

I think this is the only way our minds can cope , nature has equipped some of us with an emergency button to block out devastation and heartbreak so we can keep going'and to get that great strength no matter what life throw at us and you freominx are one of those rare people.

For anyone working in the Public Health system it must so frustrating to see, hear and read things like this? sigh

But having said that, I agree with Blizz, if the investment pays off with spin offs, which means more tax some of which goes to the Health Dept then that can only be a good thing. thumbs up

Wonder if the Govt gets its investment money back and a percentage of the profit? Ha ha - fat chance!

I don't think any Govt State, or Federal will ever have enough money to do all that we would want in the Health Sector?? There just ain't that much money in the pot? dunno blues
