i find this notion that public spending is illegitimate bizarre as a matter of economics but totally legible as a statement of moral economy. and as per any strict system of morality, the punishment is part of the appeal. they are punishing the american people for believing in the public good.

Not everything should generate a profit. Prisons & Healthcare prove that.
IT DOES NOT PREFER TO REWARD ROBBER BARONS AND THEIR PRIVATE PIRACY OF PUBLIC INVESTMENT AND COLLECTIVE ACTION.
But it will increase fraud and cost as much as can possibly be extracted from the US tax dollars to make the rich richer.
Poor people + Old people + Unvaccinated people - Government services = Dead people
More money for super rich people. I’m not kidding this is what hey want. Purge the proletariats.
Anyway, required reading
The sharing of wealth for societal benefit is what keeps the masses from being 3rd world countries.
The failure to understand that is the failure of education to teach basic economics
By the People
For the people
Government is for us
Not the rich if they insist on their own rules
If they get it, they’re enemies

He's talking about weather reports, FAA, education, scientific research into disease and cures, healthcare, veteran support, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the post office, food & drug safety, soil conservation, water protection, air pollution.
year olds and saved trillions
It is a word that ! When taken in the sense of true meaning... will be for the benefit for ALL! Unfortunately, our politicians have fallen into the vat of greed and a " NO CARE ATTITUDE " for their constituency. So, what is the point then!!
FUCK the GQP. I'll give you a 'detox period.'
@lawgunsmoney.bsky.social
I think they need a detox period.
They’re going to cut everything, automate IRS, skim what their greedy hearts desire, and that’s that. Fuck the “NPCs”.

"On the other hand all of recorded history" continues to hold true.
28 days off that shit, and wait and see how many emerge from the haze.
All while still paying taxes so politicians can sell unwanted cars on the White House front yard.
Personally I'd like them to define "waste, fraud, & abuse" because it looks a whole lot like "programs I don't understand or like/old and poor people don't deserve things."
" I have a plan... wait and see"
"Next Month..."
"transitional period..."
Always later, never now. Later you can lie about how & why you got there but, if you talk now, then you can be held accountable.
But, with Kult47 its all Flip-Flop-O-Roonie anyway
It's all been absurd, for so so so many decades.

No sweat.
Well, maybe some cold sweat.
But we all know that the only thing they really like about Scandinavia is the predominance of white people.

Trumponomics
oops
It's not often enough framed this way, but a big factor in this current crisis comes down to fundamental differences in worldview:
- People should look out for each other
- Looking out for each other is evil and wrong
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union,... promote the general Welfare, ... Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Not hard to grok!
When government aligned with all rights and wealth being with white males, no problem. Over the last several decades when that began to change, now they detest government.
The Bootstrap Church of Rugged Individualistic Wealth Gospel preaches that, if you are "elect," if you are "worthy," god rewards you. And if you're not wealthy; then clearly you are not chosen by god, and should just DIE.
Private Companies are NOT going to build infrastructure (unless it is Toll Roads, Toll Bridges, Private Airports...
The plan is CLEARLY to exterminate half the population through poverty
The only legitimate spending by the US government is spending to establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty
Trump doesn’t do free world, or leading, or economics
But there’s something he’s excellent at it’s bankruptcy, how does Putin benefit from his pocket Dumb Don?
