Let me de-spin that for you.

If you earn a wage far in excess of what the average worker earns you are unlikely to need the government to work towards improving your wages and conditions.

It is generally acknowledged by economists that governments ought to go into deficit during down turns in economic activity in an effort to minimize the impact and repay that debt when the economic situation improves.

Welcome to the real world !
