WAVE OFF THAT CHOPPER FULL OF USELESS SPENDING, SOLDIER.
WE DON'T NEED MORE TRAINING ON PRONOUNS
Bungling Biden's
DEMOCRAT-dominated Congress continues to allocate funds to produce weapons that the Pentagon itself says it doesn't need, and he won't use.
The extra deficit spending, we are told, would "fund more weapons to better prepare us to respond to aggression in a world that looks increasingly dangerous". Really?
Providing military defense is a valid function of the federal government. However, that doesn't give license to Bungling Biden's
DEMOCRAT-dominated Congress to simply pile on more spending.
More spending will not result in a completely safe world for Americans. That's because that world doesn't exist.
In fiscal year 2023, the United States was already expected to spend more than $770 billion on national defense.
This is more than the next 10 countries spend
combined.
- Russia, for instance, spends close to $62 billion.
- France and Germany spend almost $53 billion each.
- Assuming China's numbers are accurate, it spends $252 billion.
When considering how much more money bungling Bides and his defense stock-owning Congressional cohorts think is worth spending, keep in mind that not every additional dollar of military spending will result in enhanced national security.
That's because government intentions do not equal results. Elected officials and bureaucrats have weak incentives to sensibly manage tax dollars.
They are not rewarded for maximizing taxpayer value, nor are they punished for unnecessary expenditures.
In addition, in bungling Biden's woke American dystopia, leftist interest groups often drive political decisions that run counter to the best interest of the public.
