[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a $1.83 trillion budget deficit last year. Unsustainable. Musk thinks he can cut a trillion in spending. Good, let’s see what he comes up with. His experience at Twitter showed him that three quarters of the people employed there were useless at best. [/quote] The only way to make a serious dent in spending is to reform OASDI, Medicare, and military spending. I don't think politicians from either party have the political courage to tackle this issue. A significant reform will be very unpopular, despite the fact it is needed.[/quote] As someone not collecting disability or veterans benefits, not eligible for Medicaid, and too young to really expect to get much from SS, at this point I’m like F it. Burn it down. I’ll take less national debt for my children’s generation and my life will plug along just as it always was. America voted to cut for trillions from the budget and this is the only way to do it, so do it. It’s not what I voted for, but let’s give our country the results the people have asked for. There are so many people out there cheering for Feds like me to lose our jobs. So why am I going to bother caring if they lose their benefits that my paycheck helps fund. If you don’t want me to have a job (which contributes taxes toward these programs) then just cut it all off. And I am sorry for the people who didn’t vote for this. I do have empathy for you. The rest of you are idiots.[/quote] I am fascinated that so many on here think Musk is actually trying to cut spending to help the country. He is only in there to benefit himself. And what he is doing won't fix the deficit and could result in so many significant harms. Man, so many of you are stupid AND gullible. Of course, that is the only explanation for Trump being POTUS again.[/quote]
