How TF can a President ever reduce spending?

[CrusaderFrank]

Unlike a Company CEO, POTUS cannot simply scrap and defund the Inflation Reduction Act or any other useless, harmful spending

Thanks to the CIA coup taking out Nixon, in 1974 Congress passed the Unconstitutional Budget Impoundment Act, neutering the Presidents ability have any control over the budget

Moreover, 95% of US Congress is made of the GREEDIEST most corrupt politicians on planet Earth

What can be done?

We need to change the system under which these people operate.

But we don't do that, because not enough people give a shit.

They sure can tell you who won on "Dancing with the Stars", though.

So electing less successful people is your answer?

One of the more interesting ideas floated in the GOP primaries was Vivek's. Ya can't fire the bureaucracy's employees but you can furlough the hell out of them.
If there is nobody to process or administer the funds there is no spending.

Democrats ran Kucinich off because he was willing to be honest about Obamacare.

You certainly know Kucinich isn't a GREEDY politician.

Depends what they were successful at?

I'd never vote for Bill Bradly because he was a basketball star.

But i'd vote because of his record, not his finances

After graduating in 1965, he attended Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship where he was a member of Worcester College, delaying a decision for two years on whether or not to play in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Reduction is probably unachievable. A plan other than “starve the beast” is needed or chaos will continue.

You could have said something realistic, instead of Thanks to the CIA coup taking out Nixon, in 1974

You left out the CIA is responsible for global warming.

Not possible when big corporations and rich people keep lobbying the government.

Not possible when big corporations and rich people keep lobbying the government.

Or buying elections, like Musk is trying to do.

This might blow your mind, but one can be successful and not overly wealthy at the same time.

There are actually other measures of success.

Stop reelecting members of Congress at a greater than 90% rate

Wrong. The people elect politicians, not big corporations.

If you stop listening to the propaganda from big corporations, you could make a wise choice.

As I said. Stop listening to big corporations (and billionaire businessmen) like Musk and what he pushes on "X".
