so… This is the guy picked to lead America to into a fiscal responsible era, huh? He said if he can find $2 Trillion in cuts, he wants to give everyone a $5000 “refund” check…. Which would cost just shy of 2 trillion dollars… so he wants to replace wasteful spending with wasteful spending…. doesn’t even make sense. We got here by underpaying our taxes for 4 decades, not overpaying, so what is there to refund? Elon Musk elevates the idea of a $5,000 DOGE rebate check for taxpayers
Who cares about tomorrow? $5k is a lot of booze and babes. Let it rip America! woohooo bring it on asteroid! (You are correct. Should be to balance the budget)
our generation Howard Hughes, with his fingers and sweet nothings controlling our potus heck yeah,we all want $5k... maybe he can front it until congress approves it
Theres zero chance Musk’s MAGA fanboys approve of this, but they can’t admit it, so they’ll pretend they support it
I hope it’s not a flat $5k. Last thing I want is more money kicked back to the boomers who got us here.
Given that the only way they are going to find $2 trillion to cut is to reduce SS and Medicare benefits, this would be a transfer from old people to young people.
Finally. This Trump guy is awesome. Hopefully when he’s done with the older folks he’ll claw back some SNAP benefits. 56% go to kids who, get this, PAY NO TAXES. Freeloaders.
While unlikely, this might not be a bad idea. Given the price increases in just 1 month under President Musk, in another 4 years of this administration, you are going to need that $5000 just to buy eggs.
If We The People get 20% of all that original theft, and return 80% of that ill-gotten money back to the treasury, that IS still better than letting it all 100% go to waste, fraud and abuse. It's the lesser of the two evils, with a stimulus kick for good measure.
