MU, The country did not always run 'balanced budgets' - see again 'history' (every time we had a war there was a financial crisis - we have never run a balanced budget in time of war).
Just because a budget is balanced doesn't mean that everyone is making an equivalent contribution. Some people are paying massive taxes, others are paying nothing. That's how it works.
