How to sound intellectual on a budget day?

First, start off with a sentence containing phrases like, proactive tax Rationalization, infrastructure financing, economic intervention

"This budget should focus on proactive economic intervention with infrastructure rationalization"

As soon as the budget is over, immediately say,

"Between our aspirations of becoming an economic superpower and actual ground relalitiez, This budget plays safe and caters to both aspects"

Throw in words like currency management, Manufacturing subsidy, Agricultural enhancement and Fiscal Deficit.

Manufacturing is very important. Say things like, "Though I am happy with what the govt did, I expected more for manufacturing this budget"

The term Fiscal Deficit has to be there. Words like Prudent, Curtail etc, should be thrown in, before/after it

Like, "Given the Fiscal Deficit constraints, the Govt is prudent to ensure it's curtailment"

And yes, the sentence, "Disinvestment and Privatization is very important"

And if all fails, just say the word, "I was expecting way more from this government"

Works every time. Nobody will ask you any question, as nobody knows what to expect and they will think you know.
