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 $1,142.86, which would be a significant one time payment for a lot of Americans, but wouldn’t offset the loss of Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, a functioning Post Office, etc.
And the other 80% to himself and his friends.
This is called a bribe. He doesn’t want to give any money out but he realizes that firing hundreds of thousands off people and robbing the government clean isn’t exactly a slam dunk policy, so instead he’s offering you as 2,500$ check to watch this happen.
Sick shit, really.
Anybody who believes that he would actually do this is someone who would fall for the wallet inspector.
Spend money on taxes to maintain important departments.
The government guts important departments and programs.
Gives just 20% of your taxes back.
Profit?
probably to one particular American citizen
Wouldn’t that cause inflation? Something you were campaigning to reduce?
20% of 0 is still 0, Donny-boy.
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.
And he and Elon keep the rest?
And a massive 100% of the “negative savings” (ie damages).
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
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
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
billion is a thousand millions, not a million millions
400 trillion
in other words, it’s a stimulus check, a thing that he can put his name on to prevent (and completely fail in doing so) the economic recession that would be caused by his stupid policies making the price of everything go up.
