Everyone in Washington believes in MMT when it comes to military spending
Why is an Onion article in news— Oh.
But how about second breakfast of war with Iran?
we have infinite money with which to do bad things. no money for anything that would make people’s lives less miserable though
Death to America
Those dead imperialist eyes.
"You? You're alright. This one? Real fucking ugly"
We can't afford healthcare, or student loan forgiveness, or housing, or food, or bridges, or infrastructure, but BOY HOWDY war? We can CERTAINLY afford AT LEAST two of those
Of course the US can. It's so infuriating that it has the money and resources to spend in whatever it wants and instead it's using it to finance death.
Of course, I think she's probably saying this at the GOP more than as a personal interest in war, as we've been hearing people talk about America doesn't have the resources, which even if true isn't something you would say if you "love america".
america is the richest country on earth and we can afford anything*, implying otherwise is blasphemy
*offer not valid for the dirty poors

It’s so infuriating that [the US] has the money and resources to spend in whatever it wants and instead it’s using it to finance death.
As far as the burger regime is concerned, those are the same thing.
America can afford 2 wars.
You mean the wars in Palestine and Ukraine, right?
The wars in Palestine and Ukraine, right?
That's our entire economic model and foreign policy positions summed up in one sentence.
It's heartwarming to see people from all over lemmy come together and dunk on this ghoul
I have a lot of old people in my life that I love.
But man oh man, this makes me think all political gam gams and pepaws should be inhaling pillows at a certain age just to prevent them from turning into a murderous politician.
It may be time to tell 's daughter she needs to Chief her Cuckoo's Nest in MineCraft before the brainrot turns (more) malicious.
