Implement all DOGE recommendations

Keep tariffs fairly high

Keep and extend the current tax levels

Cut every single government payment, contract, salary, entitlement 5% and freeze for 2 years with no inflation adjustments or raises

See where we are in 2 years


Bomb thrower here. An idiot one who things DOGE recommendations have anything to do with saving money.

In two years, if you did the above, we would be hiding in our basements suffering from economic collapse due to crap policies.

Yes, we all know how much the DCUM crowd cares about debt/deficits.

As they say in Hamilton (the play), "History has its eyes on you [America]." This will not end well.

Republicans aren’t fiscally responsible. That was all a lie.

Because only one side actually wants that. The entire Republican modus operandi since 1980 is simple- lower taxes for the rich, pay for some of the tax cuts by reducing things for middle class and the poor, and finance the rest because who cares. Every single major legislative effort by the Republicans since then has been in service of that goal.

Because we have a bunch of bomb throwers in Congress who want to "reset" the United States government and its economy. The quicker we can get to default, the better. Chaos is a ladder.


Right- because in their view, they won't be the ones to suffer. Other people have to go through the pain to eventually come out the other side.

Nothing to worry about here. Everything is perfectly normal. Nothing could possibly go wrong with having govt debt at levels not seen since the post-Revolutionary war days of Alexander Hamilton. /s

If Republicans pass their tax and spending megabill, the record will arrive even sooner — putting America’s debt at more than 113 percent of the size of its entire economy.
