@gemlog @MMRnmd thanks for the translation!
I don’t really like that graphic tho, it paints a picture that is too black-and-white. For years, the budgets of *some* public services have only increased. And the quality has gone down. This is precisely the source of many of these tensions.
An alternative graphic would be one where the first domino is “Increase of public funds” and so on and so on. It wouldn't apply to every situation, but it would explain the other point of view.
