Ah yes, you would of course echo the right wing talk point of saying that money spent on the country is a waste.
Oddly enough when even more money was simply given to our uber wealthy you had not a thing to say.
I take delight in the thought we do still live in a democracy, in spite of the fact that those of a right wing persuasion do strive
to see that changed.

Where's the money coming from?

Any money Congress conjures out of thin air makes whatever you have worth less. Or worse they could borrow from the Chinese which I am sure is their plan, more Chyna road business for the crooked politicians on both sides.

We would be lucky if 1/3 of what Trillions Pelosi spends actually goes to something that helps the average American and not to slip some dollars to their buddies phony business.

Certainly a lack of understanding of economics. The broken window theory of economic expansion has been tried and failed many times. You cannot rise economically without creating CAPITAL! Socialism only spends it.

Modern Monetary Theory

Also:

Increase in the Money Supply and Inflation


“Most people will correlate governments printing money with inflation.
An increase in the overall money supply can sometimes lead to both cost-push and demand-pull inflation. Money supply creates inflation only when the money is printed faster than the economy grows. Keep in mind that the money supply is not just hard cash, but also credit, loans, and mortgages.”

You have shown us repeatedly that you have little understanding of, or affection for the country.
I don't expect anything different from you at this point.

The US is doomed if they keep spending money like a drunken house speaker. Good thing the US is not a Democracy!

The very thing you claim we are not, is that which the grifter was trying so desperately to kill on the the sixth.
Can't help but agree with the thought that we should celebrate our democracy on the sixth.

Well you are saying things I never said and talking about time in the past when I wasn't here.

Democracy Day January 6th. Many Americans will keep it in their heart. What did they say after 9/11. Never forget. The perpetrators want healing while showing no remorse . They make false claims of no democracy as they soil themselves in its destruction. Fuck them and their lies. I, one of many will never forget. Deification and confederate flags in our nations capital as they tried to steal my vote and my freedom. Not one of them deserve consideration as their false ideology falls to the ground. The product of a horses ass.

Do you know how I know you've never been a business owner?

"Who cares if the building that we work out of is collapsing? We've got money to make so I can buy a new bass boat and home." - former boss who is no longer a business owner.

That was my whole point of doing business. I was a hippie though and ended up with a kayak.

But I was a business owner. Ran a one man dental handpiece repair business.

when you give money to the rich, they invest it & it "trickles down" supposedly. if you give it straight to the poor, they just waste it on food, rent, clothes for their kids, and crack/smack...
