Ugh, the American people are screwed. Honestly, I never thought red-pilled, racist, incel techbros would be our overlords, but here we are. BigBalls, 26, Director of Destroying Humanity.

I had an IC handle for about 2 days, around 7 years ago. Ben said I was too mean, and banned me forever. I promise to only be an appropriate level of mean now, based on the societal conditions that the techbros make us suffer through. Deal?

What was that IC name?

Maybe it will be that states break up into clusters of smaller countries


I hope we (NC) can be paired up with Virginia.

I mean even a NC, SC, GA and VA country would be pretty moderate if the new country didn't have gerrymandering

No chance on God’s green Earth.

NC, SC, GA, and VA as one nation is the Confederacy resurrected.

“Subcommittee Chairwoman Greene: “Mr. Talcove, do private sector companies have a lower rate of improper payments than the federal government?”

Mr. Talcove: “Yes. The fraud rate, that the criminals are taking advantage of the public sector is around 20%. In the private sector, it’s around 3%. And it’s really because the tools that are used in the private sector, aren’t used in the public sector. Front end identity verification, self-certification, and then finally, making sure that individuals are who they say they are. If we start using these tools, you will see the fraud rate go down dramatically because for the most part, this fraud isn’t taking place by individuals. It’s individuals whose identities have been stolen on the dark web.”

Subcommittee Chairwoman Greene: “We would say the private companies that pretty much have to exist on a 20% profit rate. They can’t continue to be successful if they were to allow their customers data to be something like that and used by criminals. However, the federal government, who can continue printing checks and continue an operation, never fixes its problems because it can’t be forced to go out of business. Would you agree with that, Yes or no?”

Mr. Talcove: “Yes.”

Is Talcove lying? Who is Talcove? Where does he get his information?
Also, what does fraud have to do with what DOGE is doing?

You have to be fucking kidding me. That's what they are trying to do? They are trying to steal 4.7T? Or offset the costs of their tax cuts? Where is this money coming from? Pulled out of people's bank accounts?

Edit: it seems as though they are just filling in a code in a database. They aren't saying it's untraced; they are saying it can't be linked to budget items. Watch this story, but it might be nothing more than a shitpost.

Wait, so your initial reaction isn't to due diligence and be upset that your govt is hiding $4.7T? But rather be upset that the new administration is lowering taxes? You can't be this obtuse! You'll claim that DOGE has no proof, but will go down your own rabbit hole with no proof that DOGE is making this up.
And secondly, they dont need $4.7T to justify lowering taxes. Why do you worship the govt so much you can't see that they're robbing you??

You are really bad at this.

It's not up to us to seek out proof that Musk is not telling the truth. It's up to Musk to provide proof when he makes these outlandish accusations. It's called transparency, and it appears that DOGE is the only department in the federal government that doesn't have to adhere to it.

When Musk says the government is "hiding" $4.7 T, your response shouldn't be anger at the government, you're response should be, "Huh? Where is the proof?"

I'll say it again, con men like Donald Trump and Elon Musk have relied on simple-minded people like you for decades to fill their pockets. And you don't seem to be learning any lessons from it.
