Is it a stretch to say we could cut 50% of government funding?

Lazy government officials, self sabotaging programs, useless foreign aid that gets taken advantage of, illegal immigrants, worthless Marxism college education

Most of it just goes to Democrat activism anyway.

It's like rearranging the proverbial furniture on the Titanic. Most spending is massive obligations like debt and social security. But sure.

So basically what you're saying is NEVER IMPROVE

Cutting 10% is better than cutting 1% or 0%. Saving $50/mo off your groceries by shopping smarter is better than just throwing up your hands, like a bitch, because your $1300/mo rent takes up the bulk of your paycheck.

Do what you can, now, worry about the rest later.

I never said never improve. But cutting a few services even back to zero wouldn't move the needle much. Am I for it, yes. Will it matter... no.

Step 1... implement the fair tax

Step 2... sunset social securty

Step 3... sunset medicare and medicaid

Step 4... end block grants back to states...

Step 5... dismantle fed services (like the cdc)

Step 6... we'll never get to step 1...so I'll save it.

I'd love to see Trump veto the stupid omnibus spending packages and demand that he get a bill per department/ service to sign... so that we can shed some light on these departments, but the non discretionary spendig is way way way more than any CCF, FDA, or xyz dept reform.

The US government is the public equivalent of the Disney corporation.
