Winning!

  • Elon Musk's cost-cutting efforts at the Department of Government Efficiency have yet to reduce the federal deficit overall; it more than doubled month on month in February to over $1.1 trillion for FY 2025. Meanwhile, concerns grow over America's soaring debt-to-GDP ratio, projected to reach 166% by 2054, as President Trump's proposal to sell "gold cards" to wealthy immigrants faces skepticism due to the limited pool of eligible buyers.

You mean completely restructuring a broken system is not free?!?!?!?


Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!
Oh, good argument. I see. The price of groceries will go up, unemployment numbers will triple, the US will start more wars, and the deficit will grow. All in an attempt to do the exact opposite, because, that's how Mango Mussolini makes things better. I get it now.

Those deportations have cost a lot more than expected @LotusBud

Senator Lindsay Graham was begging for more money after Tom Homan the border czar used it all up.

The price of groceries will go up

Of course. And a bunch of other stuff, as companies have to develop new distribution chains, etc.

But it is just temporary.


unemployment numbers will triple

That is a GREAT thing.

The same production with a much smaller work force.

I know this is not a concept that communists easily grasp, but efficiency is good.


the US will start more wars

The US is ending wars.


the deficit will grow

Temporarily.

Making changes will take effort and money.

But it will result in a much better system.

USA will be self-reliant.

Honestly, you just have to look at the reaction of the rest of the Western world to see that USA really did not have good allies.

Good point, Senile @Joe.

Some cost and effort now for benefits that will be seen for at least decades.
In which case you will be simply delighted when the Stock Market crashes & your stock portfolio Lex @The Prowler

Every key person in Trump's administration wants and expects a recession and stock market crash soon Lex.

They say it's supposed to get rid of the 'toxicity' in the system. In which case you must be the toxic influence they are trying expunge Lex.

So when your stock portfolio tanks you wont mind eh Lex? After all it's for the Grester good.

North American companies will have to go through a period of adjustment, and then they will thrive.

The trick here will be to know how long each sector will need to adjust.

I will play the markets with a couple of million dollars...but most of my equity investments will just stay parked where they are.

Just passing through, Regg. Just making sure everyone is aware that Trump is growing the deficit and tanking the economy...as predicted by those in the know.
OK. Hope you lose everything and your illicit USAid contract checks stop coming. :ThumbsUp1:

Don't be such a stranger, old man. Larry and that OldSlowDumbass guy need someone to talk to about fishing.

Oh and PS: Did I mention Trumpty Dumpty has been ordered to rehire all those he improperly fired.
Somewhere along the line he's going to have to wake up and realize that he is not a monarch.
