We seem to have a very expensive program where we repeatedly launch rockets into the Indian ocean. Maybe they could cut that one.

I don't know if this is true or not (obviously) but it is an interesting story. I mean, it is an excellent read, like a spy novel. https://www.uncoverdc.com/2024/11/22/matt-gaetz-what-actually-happened

I might have guessed Roger Stone was in the mix somewhere..   Pretty wild story.

Yeah, I heard some guy is getting fat feasting on government contracts.   Musky and Smarmaswamy  should definitely look into that.

Seriously though, they are making big claims about mass sacking government employees, which will certainly get a cheer in certain quarters (until they actually have to use that government deptarment), but will barely dent federal spending

Quote
Annual salary and benefits for federal employees, excluding military personnel, only amount to about $305 billion per year in the $6 trillion federal budget, said Brian Reidl, a senior fellow at the center-right think tank Manhattan Institute, told the Washington Post. This means that if 25% of all employees—a high estimate—were eliminated, spending would be reduced by 1%, Reidl said.

Something like 65% of spending is mandatory, so to get anywhere near the 2 trillion, they will have to get rid of all defence spending and stop paying interest on debt.  Both of which might be somewhat controversial.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/11/25/trump-tariffs-china-mexico-canada-percent/

25% tariffs for Canada and Mexico.  10% for China.

I'm glad we're getting back to focusing on our true enemy which is Canada.

10% for China is odd though.  I wonder if that's because China owns Elon Musk.

If Trump is even a fraction as good as he claims, there's an easy place to cut. The Federal Reserve System.  You dismantle them and the whole house of cards with national debt falls apart. Of course, they will try to kill you if you attempt that.

It is an " additional 10 percent" for China on top of the other proposed ones - this one specifically about drugs.  Trump is absolutely tariff happy now.  He has his hammer and everything is starting to look like a nail.

In terms of ol' musky, it must represent a huge risk to Tesla.  Who knows what Xi will do with Tesla in China during a trade war, though I can't imagine it involves them opening another factory.

Read the other day that over 2/3rd of Americans are worried that Trump’s tariffs will push up prices.

Yet exit polls of the election showed that the economy, particularly recent inflation, was the top reason for ditching the Democrats (or at least tied with immigration concerns).

Does that seem odd to anyone else?

No, there's a perfectly good explanation for this.  The American electorate are fucking morons.

https://www.devvy.com/notax.html

Let's explain a popular myth. Perhaps you've heard this one. The government sits around and overspends on big ticket items, like nuclear submarines and fighter planes, welfare systems that don't work, education systems that don't work, and you can probably fill in the blanks with your favorite ones. In return, like spoiled children, they say there is national debt and unlike our debt (which is our problem), they tell us that it is our civic duty or some other bullshit to pay their debt. That you are a criminal, in fact, if you don't pay the taxes that you "owe" when someone is spending your money far better than you. The IRS btw, has numerous employees who are thousands or even millions in tax debt, but never mind them! Let's focus on those "rich". 
Okay, indeed, let's focus on the virtually unknown super-rich, who run a private loan operation on the US. How does the US get its money? Well, it actually doesn't come from our taxes. Income tax is slight of hand, where the government creates debt, which in turn the Federal Reserve System turns into fiat currency (it used to be that the US Mint and the like issued all money, now the Federal Reserve can basically roll out entire sheets of the stuff, as you can see from the face that Federal Reserve System is printed on all dollars).  Up until the 16th Amendment in around 1913, the US had no income tax.
Quote
This is how the magical money machine works. Congress overspends. It borrows from this accounting firm called the "Fed" and then turns around and tells you to pay for these crimes against the people. In other words, Congress basically pays the bills with social security and borrowed ink from the "Fed." Pretty slick scam, wouldn't you say?
If you were to gut the Federal Reserve System, like magic, our "debt" would suddenly disappear, as would much of the Deep State. This is because our debt is a fiction, which exists only through a massive amount of chicanery and grift. Really? The US government needed to spend billions on paperclips? Sorry, not buying it.

Uhhhh maybe because that speech sounded like the sort of thing you'd say while drunk?

"Hey, like... I just wanted all of you to know... you're beautiful. I love you guys! :BELCH:"

Tariffs would lower prices... if they were the only tax. As long as the Fed exists, they will continue to demand higher returns on "national debt." While our government pays nothing. Tariffs work by encouraging companies to build locally. Income taxes encourage companies to outsource. So if you push business out of the country with high taxes, and then do tariffs, that's a higher price not a lower one. But if companies only have to work with tariffs, US goods to US citizens are cheap, and only imports and exports involve tariffs.

The national debt is owed by the world bank and is borrowed against our GDP.  I mean, we've been in debt since Andrew Jackson got rid of our debt(which we had since the American Revolution) and plunged the US into a recession while also death marching indians.

Also, if America labor was cheap, why would we import?  American labor is expensive.  And while you COULD build locally, why would you?  It's gonna take years to build up manufacturing and most of the new factories will be automated.  Which is cheaper in the long run anyway, but still more expensive than Mexican or Chinese labor.
Gone.
