but the robbery already happened.

Think again..it was simply transferred to another place...so transfer back what is owed the people. Nothing too dificult to understand about that...it's not there money to spend on Politicians favored projects....cut those out and a vast number of other nonesense projects and problem solved.....that's not hard to understand. And while their at it start collecting the debts from other countries and stop giving them a free pass to use our money.

No, it was spent - not simply transferred. What is spent over and above what is budgeted must be paid back with future revenues, i.e. higher taxes on current tax payers, taxes on people who are too young to vote or people who haven't even been born yet.

Politicians of all stripes spent money from people not even born yet to buy votes from the current crop of ignorant voters.

How are you going to get that back? You can't get back or transfer what's already been spent. All you have left is a pile of IOU's miles high. Who's going to pay those IOU's?

Maybe you’re having trouble with the facts. The money was SPENT, not saved. It’s GONE.

It was spent on bombers, retirees, federal employee pensions, and toner cartridges, among other things. It’s GONE.

The only money you will receive will be right from the pockets of earners, who have no hope of enjoying the same benefits when their turn comes.

If you want the hope of some return, then help the golden goose survive, instead of squeezing it to death.
