No respect for property. That basically sums up the left wing philosophy

Who cares who she is as long as she gets the work done. Meritocracy

Will probably be a lot of spending items for $49,999 then. You can’t trust bureaucrats with taxpayers money. Not even $1

You basically only need government for security/army. Almost everything can be done by the private sector (yes, even roads). From that perspective Argentina is more interesting than the US. I think Milei will push this agenda further than Trump.

Yes - I don’t get it that people are defending this kind of spending.

That is basically the answer to all the stuff DOGE eliminates and the Democrats are furious about. If you really think something is important, pay for it yourself.

It is almost criminal that these kind of projects were subsidized. The list seems to be endless.

Exactly. We’ll see tomorrow - I’ve understood it will be public then.

I was not talking about Pam, but the Epstein List. Seems everyone is on that list. If you’re not on it you’re probably not famous or rich enough. Why the hype?

tbh - I don’t get the hype.

Hmm… source?

This guy the avarage Lemmy user?

Lemmy is a collective of uninformed Maoists. Probably young and never had any responsibility. Wait till they have a family and need to pay taxes. That exorcises the Marxist out of any sensible creature.

Charity should be a private endeavor, not a collective one, and it shouldn’t be a partisan decision. I want to decide for myself what I consider a good cause.

Democrats oppose the audit on the grounds that DOGE, a department within the federal government, should not have access to taxpayers’ sensitive data.

They just don’t want the audit.

You don’t like foreigners?

Have you seen the list of saving on the DOGE site? It is already a very long list. Pretty sure there will be something on there that is worth keeping. Cutting something doesn’t mean it can’t be changed. Musk also re-hired some of the Twitter employees after cutting too deep.

Mistakes will be made and there is a lot of transparency about his approach. In Europe they are doing the opposite. You should be glad - you don’t live here. It is a bureaucratic nightmare.

What is on this list I wouldn’t want my taxpayers money spent on. 🤷‍♂️

So better to just keep wasting money? You know that is basically accepting corruption right? You know for sure that the average American will not profit from that.

Another bureaucrat bites the dust. This is the way.
