My friend, the conversion into a common denominator is for comparison purposes. What we are comparing ia the total value of the budgets. What you are introducing is another kind of comparison of which there are thousands to choose from

Hii ndiyo inaitangwa prompt dismissal. You settled that and invalidated any further discussion :D:D

How do you compare the total value without gauging what those budgets can do in their countries? Stop being confused young man

@ndume

what matters is the actual value of the currency in the country it is used. You cant just convert our budget into dollars. Civil servants, teachers, police etc are not paid in dollars in Kenya. If it is the case, P1 teachers would be earning a net of about 200 dollars which cant even pay for a one night lodging in newyork. In nairobi the same amount can pay for a one month decent lodging.

Budgets are phantoms for governments to propagate the tax propaganda. In reality it is comparable to the cons I use by renting a room with a hidden chamber for ‘voices of spirits’

I hope it will be utilized effectively. We’ll borrow much of the budget from outside the country. Forever indebted to other nations and institutions. The USA borrows alot from China and Japan according to some story I read some years ago, it’s a country that thrives on madeni too.

you borrow wisely. You dont repay in cash but commit natural resources
