You are an inept moron. The reason you compare 30 years ago and 20 and 10 is for a baseline. Why did spending go up? Was it justified? It’s possible (it’s not justified I can assure you but it’s possible).

This is why government budgeting should take a more business approach.

Comparisons and analysis is great in every aspect of what one does. Where am I today compared to yesterday?

No one lied about the government spending. We literally gave billions to things like trans comic books in South America. Contraceptives to Africa. DEI in berna.

None of that BS is justified. Zero.
Yeah,I am aware of what a baseline is. I said that using 135 years ago as a baseline is stupid because it's comparing apples to oranges due to all the revolutionary changes in society and life over that time.

10 years ago or 20 years ago are baselines that could make sense to use, sure.


Your claim that multiple billions were spent on contraceptives, trans books, and 'berna' DEI is questionable.
- Over what period of time did it take to spend multiple billions on those things?
- Are you including 10 or 20 years ago in the time frame above, so those costs are then also part of the baseline? If so, we'll that doesn't seem useful.
- What is 'DEI in berna'? I can't even guess what that would refer to.



Once again, cutting spending that is not effective or impactful or meeting the stated goal/requirements of a program or Department makes sense.
I do not have a problem with it.
I have a problem with vilifying people, posting incorrect info on social media in an effort to whip up outrage, and calling things fraud or corrupt which simply aren't(and existed without issue during Trump's first term).

See hanging up on one thing again.

If I show you billions spent on dumb stuff in the last 5 years will you admit it’s wrong and terrible?

or we can keep going in this circle where you make a fool of yourself over and over

You are saying things and I am responding. You you feel like I am getting hung up in something, that's because you are spewing incorrect info and I am questioning it or straight up telling you it's a lie.

So if you want that to stop, then stop posting things that are incorrect.

- I agree that some things the Fed Gvt has spent money on isn't getting good ROI.
- I also think some things that were cut should have continued because there is benefit to the world or receiving our assistance.

So if you posted accurate info, I might actually agree with it.

Nothing I’ve said is incorrect

name one thing and be specific. I bet you can’t.
