That’s OK, since our tariffs tax is giving the government even more.
They have a point though. That’s us chipping in some additional money for the government to blow.
I thought it wouldn’t be needed here, but since I have similar up votes and down votes, I was apparently incorrect.
Well it’s not sarcastic, it’s factually correct. The tariffs are a tax on us that goes to the government. Whether that’s bad or not isn’t really embedded into your text. So it becomes a mirror for the reader.
LOL, LMAO, LOL
Believe it or not, all of it was spent on golf!
Someone said, “I rather him go golfing with our money than going to foreign aid.” Wtf?
Honestly I’d rather money be wasted on golf than dismantling the entire US
It’s the golfing. And the grifting, that too.
Edit: also, flights to deport citizens to gulags.
I mean we were deporting people at higher numbers than Trump has for as long as I know. Trump’s just spending more money to deport less. Some might call it horrible money management skills.
And I’m sure he’s paying El Salvador, and for all these flights, and then for creating and distributing all of these propaganda videos and Kristi Noem tv commercials. Have to make a big spectacle about it. That’s not cheap.
It’s also that cutting doesn’t necessarily lead to spending less. I can cut 50 dollars on lunch, but then I end up real hungry, get fired and can’t resist a honey bun from the vending machine.
Its not even that.
It is throwing away your jacket because you don’t want to go out for lunch in the middle of the day. And then realizing you still need that jacket to get to and from work and having to buy a new one. And THEN buying lunch anyway because you are hungry.
A few articles have done a great job of documenting it but it boils down to the problem being the fundamental argument of WHY they are doing this. Officially their stance is to move fast, break things, and then repair what they actually needed. Except those repairs cost a LOT of time and money.
And… to add on to the brutally beaten metaphor: It also costs money to get rid ofy our old jacket because you can’t just throw it in the trash. You have to drive down to a good will to drop it off. Because government employees have PTO that needs to be paid out and so forth.
Trump: “They get PTO? Don’t bother paying them, it is money better spent on visiting the Olympics.” (Millions of dollars later, he leaves within 30 minutes of entering the stadium.) “So dull, those so-called foreign women throwing balls. Arrest them, they clearly are men in drag.”
…As ever, my well of sarcasm has become dryer than a desert. You can throw just about anything malicious or stupid at the wall, and it would be a plausible scenario with this regime. :(
BUT they DID Eliminate MY Social Security so that’s a Plus!
