DOGE would have to actually save money for this to work.
Where’s the other 80% going? It’s our tax dollars.
Into the pockets of the billionaires.
Not any more… Now it’s tax Rubbles, Riyal,and Crypto.
Anybody who believes that he would actually do this is someone who would fall for the wallet inspector.
I look forward to three extra dollars in my pocket per year. I’ll buy an egg.
May I offer you 3/5 of an egg in these trying times?
Remeber how roads are very important for our shitty infrastructure? Anyway, we don’t fix them anymore here is enogh money for a down payment for a carton of eggs.
Specifically, the American citizens who are part of the Trump administration.
Ah, so the ones who would typically be vehemently against any sort of ‘government handout’.
What’s your price? Do. Not. Cave.
The piece of shit doing this could give every American one million dollars and still have 150 billion

This is called a bribe. He doesn’t want to give any money out but he realizes that firing hundreds of thousands off people and robbing the government clean isn’t exactly a slam dunk policy, so instead he’s offering you as 2,500$ check to watch this happen.
Sick shit, really.

How did you get that refund calculated? Other calculations I have seen it at around $11 per person…
Oh oops, I saw total budget, which I took to mean revenue rather than savings
This guy also doesn’t seem to recognize the $1200 stimulus checks Trump sent out at the end of his term right before he lost the election.
Spend money on taxes to maintain important departments.
The government guts important departments and programs.
Gives just 20% of your taxes back.
Profit?
If the independent calculations are correct, DOGE has cut $8 billion in government spending. 20% of that, divided amongst 350 million Americans, would be $4.57. If DOGE’s claims are correct (and they’re not), they cut $55 billion, which would be $31.43. Even if DOGE met it’s goal of $2 trillion, that would be $1,142.86, which would be a significant one time payment for a lot of Americans, but wouldn’t offset the loss of Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, a functioning Post Office, etc.
And a massive 100% of the “negative savings” (ie damages).
And the other 80% to himself and his friends.
20% of 0 is still 0, Donny-boy.
Fuck you…the asshole doing this could give every American one million and STILL be worth 150 billion. Fuck your saving,I want the govt for the people by the people.
If he gave everyone a million that would be like 400 million million… he’s not quite that rich
In other words,
400 billions… he is worth more than thatedit: I messed it up
billion is a thousand millions, not a million millions
400 trillion
A million million is an order of magnitude more than that.
1,000,000 x 1,000,000 =1,000,000,000,000
(1,000,000,000) is a billion for comparison)
The number x 400 would be like 400 trillion which I think is more than the gdp of the entire world.
Yeap, I messed it up
I’ve done it a bunch of times myself… working with millions and billions of something is kind of in another realm that is difficult for us to conceptualize… trillions and quadrillions even more so…
Like when you look at the graphs that show what a billion dollars really is… a millionaire is closer to the wealth of a vagrant bum than he is to a billionaire to a very large degree….
The crux of my mistake was that American english calls 1 thousand millions a billion
Pretty much every other language reserves that word for a million millions
