Well, this is the thing. There's a there's a philosophy in business that you spend yesterday's money, right? So tomorrow's money, if you're talking business, is sales in the future that haven't come in yet. Today's money is a sale you've made to mone today, but the money hasn't hit your account yet. Yesterday's money is the stuff that's in your bank. I think you can extrapolate that out to business. Tomorrow's money would be we're gonna project on day one that these tax cuts are affordable, right? Today's money would be, hey, this is our budget today. Yesterday's money would be like you said, Shoey, at the next budget, looking back, like Cullen did this. They ran. I can remember actually in the first decade of this century when Michael Cullen was running the economy, and I can remember almost them being embarrassed that they had a surplus. It was like, oh yeah, yeah, I don't I I don't know quite how that happened, but then they had the opportunity to spend yesterday's money because they got to the end of the financial year and they had money left over. And they did stuff with it. I'm not saying that's the best way for a country to operate. I'm not informed enough to know, but it's the example of spending yesterday's money. So government gets in, government runs for a year, government then has yesterday's money to make promises with, and then you know if things go wrong, you've still got tomorrow's money to help cover the thing going wrong. So yeah, but this government didn't just spend tomorrow's money, they spent tomorrow's money and the next day's money and next week's money and next year's money.
