- Government to average a 2% budget surplus on any 7 year period of expenditure.
- Deliberate deficit spending to be outlawed: protect the next generation.
- Government debt to be reduced to zero over 25 year period.
- Freed from having to pay debt interest, a bigger proportion of tax receipts can be used for paying for services (health, education etc).
- Interventionist policies such as Keynesian economic Pump-priming, Monetarist money supply targets, and Quantitative Easing (ie. printing money) will be abolished.
