Everything you cite as "funding for..." would not have happened.

All we get is more layers of gatekeepers, managers and rubber stamp committees.

The federal bureaucracy is killing everything.

Then take a scalpel to the waste, but shutting everything down and making our government non-functional borders on treason.

Our government has functioned like a pig on stilts since the 1970s.

The GOP has repeatedly opposed funding bills to update and upgrade the system, including as recently as 2023.

How is this the democrats fault?

The first thing that some experts told me when this happened is you can't hook up land to satellites and you can't hook up satellites to land. It doesn't work. We spend billions of billions of dollars trying to renovate an old, broken system, instead of just saying cut it loose, and let's spend less money and build a great system done by two or three companies, very good companies, specialists, that's all it is. They used 39 companies. That means that 39 different hookups have to happen. And I don't know how many people of you are good in terms of all of the kinds of things necessary for that. And it's very complex stuff. But when you have 39 different companies working on hooking up different cities at different people. You need one company. With one set of equipment. And there are some countries that have unbelievable air controller systems. And they would've, bells would've gone off when that helicopter literally even hit the same height. Because it traveled a long distance before it hit. It was just like, just wouldn't stop. Follow the line. But bells and whistles would've gone off. They have 'em where it actually could virtually turn the thing around. It would've just never happened if we had the right equipment.
And one of things that's gonna be, l'm gonna speaking to John and to Mike and to Chuck and everybody, we have to get together and just as a single bill just pass where we get the best control system. When I land in my plane, privately, l use a system from another country because my captain tells me, I'm landing in New York and I'm using a sys- I won't tell you what country, but l use a system from another country because the captain says 'This thing is so bad, it's so obsolete.' And we can't have that.

Simple question, OP.

We've been paying taxes since forever. WHERE did the money go?

Same with 60 yo cobol systems at social security and the IRS.

We pay and pay and get nothing. Why is that?????

Not the OP, but until january, we had a functioning government that enforced cleaner air and water, safe food and drugs, safe air travel, an interstate highway system, a functional tax collection apparatus, cancer research and education for our children.

Somehow, the current administration has flushed all of those things down the toilet. As we paid taxes a month ago, I have no idea what I am getting for them now.
