The Federal Government should pay off its debt before giving money to other countries. Why would I lend someone money if I am deeply in debt? 🤷♂️
@ReOpenChris Because the US doesn’t run debt the same way as an individual citizen. The purpose the debt is to empower the global economy. As if someone can call to with the strongest military on earth with no close second.
@ReOpenChris Exactly. If voters could just unite in monetary issues like spending it would change Congress. Everyone is engrossed in dem vs gop. Spending shouldn’t be partisan. I have a budget. Spending is limited to income. Should be same for govt.
@ReOpenChris Or we could just collect on the national defense services we already provide? Why should we subsidize the defense of Nordic countries flush with cash to waste on universal healthcare
@ReOpenChris Thats very idealistic and not practical when it comes to defence
@ReOpenChris And if it's as easy as just borrowing more money, why doesn't that country just borrow money to get out of their problems???
