once the cap is on can you cut again, or do you have to take the cap off first ?

By now everyone should know that the word "cut" means something different to a politician than it does to you and me.

We think it means - last year we spend $10 but next year we are going to spend $9.

They think it means - we were going to increase the budget 10% but we made painful cuts so now we are only going to increase it 9%.
