...by taking it away from the working taxpayer and redirecting it to programs that will get us re-elected.
They aren’t taking it from the taxpayer. They are simply incurring magic money debt from the Fed. There is zero chance of us ever paying it back.
Our national income is 3.7 trillion a year. We spend 4.7 trillion a year, so we borrow a minimum of 1.1 trillion a year just to break even. With this plan we will be closing in on 34 trillion in debt. (and that doesn’t even include unfunded liabilities like SS other entitlements)
So that is roughly like a waitress making 37,000 a year, and running up credit cards by another 10,000 a year just to keep food on the table. And she has close to 500,000 in debt.
Time to turn your back on the government and focus 100% for prepping for economic collapse, and the resulting despotism and world without rule of law. We aren’t taxing our way out of this.
