| 1322501 | 2013-01-12 08:08:00 | "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance." - Cicero , 55 BC |

The executions of those attempting civil war for the pardoning/cancellation of ALL DEBT IN ROME is what forced him into exile. I do believe Dolabella was the one who finally absolved all Roman citizens of debt. |
