The more the better, but they should source their own needs rather than buying from private suppliers.
Taxpayers should be buying goods and services, not contributing to corporate profits.
If a necessary industry isn't profitable, just move it out of the private sector.

Here is a website which claims to give the % of spending vs GDP including state and local. 2022 is over 37% of GDP. (It looks like it gets it's data from US Budget historical documents so no reason to think it isn't relatively accurate.)

It allows you to go back and look at the other years. We have almost always been above 30% for all government spending since at least 1980. Of course spending doesn't equate to taxes since the Feds run a deficit almost every year.

Ask yourself why republicans are the one that crash the economy
And Democrats are the ones that have to clean up the messes republicans create
All clearly shown if you use the actual numbers and facts
Oh, my point of view is definitely based on facts, you little commie shill cunt.
Americans in the future should be able to have it as good as I did. One week's worth of work should pay for anyone's housing for a month.
I was literally taught that by a mentor back in the day. Next week's pay covers groceries and utilities. Then you have 2 weeks of pay that's disposable income.
That's all I wish for future Americans. That's what MAGA is about. It not fair to them to leave them the country in the fucked up situation it's in now.
Irregardless if they deserve it or wtf ever. That's their problem. My problem is the country we're leaving them isn't as good as the one we enjoyed growing up. They should be entitled to that too.
Why can't we conservatively keep America as good as it was before it's handed off to future generations?
Something needs to change so they have the same opportunities we had. Hordes of illegal immigrants does not help that situation at all.
