That's $2K OF YOUR MONEY you paid them a lot more than $2K to get.

It’s not really 2k of our money. It’s 2k of the federal reserves money that we are on the hook for paying back. The insidious part is that congress could still function for a while if every tax payer refused to pay federal taxes for a period of time, as none of the money is a direct payment.

Social security I believe is a direct wealth transfer. So the older generation would be screwed immediately.

I think that's the thing, I think Trump thinks, perhaps correctly, that pork(calling this pork is being kind though, as pork at least benefits a home district) and wasteful spending is not the hill to die on right now. It sucks, but it is nothing new. We need to press our reps on this crap, along with January 6th concerns.

This bill is every problem with government personified. You can't reason with congressmen.

Jeez .. not happy about him signing So of the $7.8 Trillion in spending this year and only $3.4 Trillion in revenue we only went $4.4 Trillion in the hole in one year, before we figure this bill which is another $2.3 Trillion? Gawd China is ruining our dollar faster than ever Edit: https://usdebtclock.org/#

That website is just a bunch of numbers moving with literally no actual information to verify if any of it is legit.

That website showed me inflation was about to happen, so I bought silver. Grew my portfolio by 50% 2 weeks later. Maybe it doesn't tell you anything, but it speaks to me.

We've definitely got to repeal Section 230 of Telecommunications Act of 1996. If we can't get it repealed, we need to re-enact 1776 and cross the Delaware.

I've little faith in anything at this point. I think you mean when Pence counts votes. No objections will be made. Smooth sailing to a Biden presidency, digging the hole we're in now even deeper and even more insurmountable without someone like Trump helping pull everyone out.
