[Title] => EDITORIAL - Buried in debt
[Summary] => Remember the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant? You should, since even your great-grandchildren are likely to repay debts incurred by the government to build that power plant in Morong, Bataan. The Constitution provides that the biggest allocation in the national budget should go to education, but in actual terms, the biggest chunk is in fact eaten up by debt repayments. That debt puts a heavy drag on the peso and shrinks your purchasing power.
