Clear solution: end the wars.

Yeah, several decades of stupid wars have completely bankrupted us.

😐

GOP: If Iran had spent more money on its people than they did on their military, they would be better off.

Also GOP: We cannot spend money on our people, we have wars to fight.

Ban abortions, don’t help people take care of their kids or themselves. Evil.

Many years ago, there was a book published about this fundamental-difference: "Counting for Nothing: What Men Value and What Women are Worth"

Change "women" to "community", & you've still got valid position..

the book's description:

Safe drinking water counts for nothing. A pollution-free environment counts for nothing. Even some people - namely women - count for nothing. This is the case, at least, according to the United Nations System of National Accounts. Author Marilyn Waring, former New Zealand M.P., now professor, development consultant, writer, and goat farmer, isolates the gender bias that exists in the current system of calculating national wealth.

As Waring observes, in this accounting system women are considered 'non-producers' and as such they cannot expect to gain from the distribution of benefits that flow from production. Issues like nuclear warfare, environmental conservation, and poverty are likewise excluded from the calculation of value in traditional economic theory. As a result, public policy, determined by these same accounting processes, inevitably overlooks the importance of the environment and half the world's population.

Counting for Nothing, originally published in 1988, is a classic feminist analysis of women's place in the world economy brought up to date in this reprinted edition, including a sizeable new introduction by the author. In her new introduction, the author updates information and examples and revisits the original chapters with appropriate commentary. In an accessible and often humorous manner, Waring offers an explanation of the current economic systems of accounting and thoroughly outlines ways to ensure that the significance of the environment and the labour contributions of women receive the recognition they deserve.

What has changed?

Has he tried not fighting wars?

Oh the exact polar opposite of what he campaigned on, time for his voters to turn on him right?

The US federal government is the source of all USD and can afford anything it wants denominated in its own currency.

Is this America first?

trump says the us does not have the money for healthcare or childcare and gibe we 1 or 2 more trillions.

The military is fighting wars, at the behest of a pedophile.

We're fighting fascism.

Maybe we should cut other stupid expenses first, like his Secret Service security detail.

He says they can’t afford to pay for it, and states should cover it, and states might have to raise their taxes, but then the federal government could lower taxes to offset that. Which obviously makes no fucking sense at all. What a moron.

So no support for soldiers and their families when they come home injured from The Trump-Epstein war on Iran?

You DONT Understand! We MUST pay for HIS War AND Israel's Healthcare AND Israel's Social Services AND Israel's Infrastructure! That's EXPENSIVE!

-America First Republicans!

If you can’t afford a war, don’t start two.
