Schweikert is my representative. Your post is blowing smoke; he realizes spending is out of control and it's the totality of it that matters.

I know him personally and your post is BS.

WTF? That’s exactly what the post shows. The much celebrated cuts haven’t done ****.

The post from shavemegasoline? I'll admit that I don't know him (your poster that is, I know David), merely stating that the post you provided takes things out of context, like much of the internet does.

Are you saying that because the savings are small so far, they should stop looking for them? It's only been 4 months.

How is it taking anything out of context? It’s Schweikert putting things IN context.

I’m saying that because they aren’t going to touch Social Security, Medicare and defense spending, they aren’t going to make serious reductions.

Do you want them to cut SS, Medicare and Defense?

Defense? Absolutely.

They should start making small cuts to SS or, by law, they are going to have to make a 17% cut ten years from now. Or they should increase taxes to cover the shortfall.
 
Seems like Elon got played by The Donald.
 
Elon exposed the fraud and waste. He doesn't write the bill. Political insiders do that. None of them want to cut the fat because they are benefiting one way or another. Or they are under threat.

Political "aides" are the real worker bees. MTG, AOC, all the rest are just spokespersons/ actors. I'd bet that most aides, R or D, are subject to same threats.

None of them are working FOR the taxpayers. All of them are working for other interests.

I didn't say he wrote anything.

To clarify, I said he got played by Trump, who went along with normal swamp pork in the budget, in spite of Musk's efforts to identify waste and fraud.

That is why Musk is publicly commenting on his frustration, and Trump is quiet with his hands folded hoping this blows over.
 
If it passes it will not cut out real meaty stuff. I suppose we can be a little happy if the cut off PBS,NPR and all other pro commie stuff.

Our credit rating has been lowered again. Lowered under Obama, Biden and Trump. Our dollars are what we would at one time considered third world.

Median price of a home is $337000. Highest ever.

Ummm.....which global currencies have outperformed USD?

Maybe the Swiss franc and the Kiwati Dinar.

Oil is priced in USD, and the last two leaders to propose alternatives were dragged thru their streets.

The debt is a **** ton, but your global view seems myopic.

Obama was the last President to defend America.

When ideology matters just as much as reality.

Trump is calling it the big, beautiful bill, but you blame political insiders. You’re in a cult.

AOC opposes the bill, the stupid c u n t MTG didn’t even know what she voted for.

Saw that this morning at the gym. She said “If I knew that was in there I would have voted no.” All I could do was shake my head. A very large and important part of your job is to know what is in the bills you’re voting for. Stupidity runs fast and deep in our government and she is very near the front of the pack.

I doubt AOC knew what's in the bill either, but agree too many votes are cast purely on party lines.

Obama was the last President to accelerate America's sell-off to foreign powers, until Biden's minders greatly sped up the process.
