Good! I LOVE eliminating my CHILDRENS SCHOOL MEALS so we can fund ANOTHER War!
-Fiscally Responsible Republicans who voted for Trump to AVOID War!
~$570 per person. And that’s the starting amount, it’ll go up.
These figures don’t count a lot of legacy costs to these conflicts either. Which skyrocket with injuries to soldiers and the like.
They also don’t count the economic and social costs of the long-term fuel and food shortages and supply chain disruptions this war will cause.
But just think of the profits for department of war contractors like open ai, nvidia, and palantir.
Not to mention the traditional crowd (Lockheed, Boeing etc)
Nvidia has a lot to learn, GPUs are buy once, cry once. Munitions are disposable, and need to be replaced. When nvidia manages to fit a H100 in the body of a missile, the real money printing begins :)
And the oil companies! Their profits are skyrocketing
But we don’t have the money for universal health care, aids research, or educations…bcz we need to blow up more elementary schools.
And yet, Americans still aren’t ready to do anything to stop this fucker.
What do you suggest? How are we to “stop this fucker,” right now? 2024 was the time to do that, and we decided to let the most unpopular person we could find run a status quo campaign as a continuation of an unpopular administration.
I’ve been able to get involved and in touch with people who help run 50501 locally, it’s hard work for little payoff. In order to plan for a general strike and protest would take weeks in advance, we’re just now getting organized and mobilized (especially in a southern city where the economy hasn’t been impacted too bad). People really underestimate the work and time it takes to get anything done
Thanks for your effort. Organization is the ONLY thing we can do that will help right now, other than creating new types of social media, long story though don’t want to get into it right now. Fediverse could work, but new types, with better rules fairly enforced and immune to government and business hooks.
Put more pressure on Congress. They really aren’t getting enough lately, honestly. They could assert their war powers at any moment.
There is a an epidemic of lead deficiency in this country that’s for sure.
I believe you mean the DNC decided, because I never wanted Harris or Biden before her. I voted for them, but only because there was no better option after the sham primaries we were handed.
Don’t blame me either, I voted for kodos too.
Those same ivy league aristocrats are still in control of the party. And the sheep still trust them, and they’ve armies of chatbots and trolls to drown out criticism on mainline social media. With plenty of real people sincerely thinking it’s my fault for not believing hard enough.
biden was the best president of my lifetime. realize any followup is going to result in me demanding you rank carter through trump. so you can’t use unpopular compared to imaginary presidents.
Maybe bulldoze the White House with him inside? Or Mar-a-lago?
It’s all written down in something called the law. Just apply it.
When there is nothing else to do then, guillotines. If you dont they will and they already are.
How practical, realistic, and modern.
Not ACTUAL guillotines, obviously. Use some modern equivalents. Though at this rate we may be back in the age of using them
Be the change you want to see I guess.
Im not in the US
Makes sense.
Why are you expecting them to do anything? They let this guy win a second time. They’re fucking morons. They’re not going to do anything.
I had most of US related news blocked but then this fucker had to go and start a war in the Middle East and now my country on the other side of the planet is bearing the brunt of it.
Fuck Americans.
Fuck Americans.
While true, there are more victims in that statement than people who made this happen.
The military budget is already damn near $1 trillion. Go fuck yourself with a rusty spoon
recruitment/military almost always downsize when a dem is in power, but it was immediately reversed when trump became the president the first time.
Fund it yourself Donnie, I want no part of this epstien fury bullshit.
200 billion taxpayer dollars and many American soldiers’ lives, is a small price to pay in service to the Epstein class!
How many trillions did we end up spending in Iraq again? Look at what we got for it. Nothing. Except hate.
Imagine the improvement in your entire country’s lives if you put that into healthcare instead of….this.
USAID was a miniscule amount of money but “too much” to spend, and this endless war is a small price to pay?
That is probably about the same amount of money Ukraine receives in 3-5 years as aid to fight Russia. MF gonna give it all to Netanyahu to turn kids lives into living hell.
Then he can pay it. Literally, he’s fleeced that much in bribes in the last few months alone. He acted without approval from Congress. This is his war. If he needs more money to stop Israel from releasing footage of him raping children, he can pull himself up by his bootstraps and sell a few Trump towers.
You can’t trust the trump administration with this kind of money, look at chick who got fired from ICE she stole 125million and put it into some company her people own. You can’t trust these people with anything.
“small price to pay to distract the media from reporitng epstein files, which i am definitely in it, but dont want the people to see how depraved i am and my billionaire friends”- TRUMP.
He should pay out of his own pocket if he had no approval for starting this stupid act of aggression.
