Nobody expects his buddies to do anything for the working person, I meant their tax dollars could be put to good use by the government as in helping entrepreneurial business start ups through programs, things like that. But, it was just my imagination.

You mean like all the wonderful and absolutely positively necessary funding from USAID? I'll pass 

Our elected officials wanted to quietly give 2 billion dollars for EPA-quality homes to a company whose total earnings were 100 dollars

I love helping small businesses and start-ups but I wonder if we want any politicians of any party involved in the process. When we usually add politicians and money and throw in some governmental bureaucracy we get less than stellar results. 

We'd be better off having corporations sponsoring neighborhoods in cities and towns, private businesses don't piss away money at the rates and levels our government does.


 

WOW: DOGE has found that the government gave illegals work authorization paperwork just a few months after filing for asylum here in the U.S, allowing them to work in this country for years before their legal hearing. The immigration department mailed them a Social Security card without any interview or identity verification. Non-citizen Social Security numbers issued over the past 4 years: 270,425 in 2021. 590,193 in 2022. 964,163 in 2023. 2,095,247 in 2024. "DOGE also discovered that 1.3 million aliens are now receiving Medicaid. Millions received drivers licenses, some registered to vote and DOGE said some actually did vote.”
