It sounds to me (from some of your other posts) as though you need to
rethink your cities. It seems as if you have too many people (all needing to
be fed and housed) in low rent housing, therefore not paying much in tax.

Use granaries better, which will save alot of markets and their staff; then,
work on getting your housing to much higher levels, which will house more
people (so you need fewer buildings for a given population size, and
therefore fewer service buildings around them).

And watch that spending!! Try not building if you think you're in danger of
losing money; then, build again when you've saved up more cash.
