Musk's fortune consists of $38 billion in government contracts. Cancel them all.

[Marener]

It’s a waste of money because you say so?

I can’t imagine why you aren’t expressing your outrage with letters and e-mails to DOGE.

I couldn’t think of a more obvious example of government waste. Spending billions to put a two people on the moon doesn’t help Americans.

But your tranny comic books imposed on foreign nations helps Americans? A tranny opera in Columbia helps Americans?

I never claimed it did.

HLS is costing $3 billion. It’s 100,000x more costly than anything you mentioned.

If you’re serious about saving the country, you’d go for the big ticket items.

If you were serious about the deficit you would be going for obvious waste and fraud, such as your tranny comic books and tranny operas.

A lunar lander is obvious waste. It’s way more efficient to cancel one big program than to look for 100,000 tiny programs.

Obvious waste is your tranny comic books and tranny operas.

You need to do your whining about waste somewhere other than a message board. Announce you’re launching a jihad to stop the lunar lander and email that announcement to the White House.

Tell me why $3 billion for a lunar lander isn’t waste.

“Elon Musk and his cost-cutting U.S. DOGE Service team have been on a mission to trim government largesse. Yet Musk is one of the greatest beneficiaries of the taxpayers’ coffers.

Over the years, Musk and his businesses have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits, often at critical moments, a Washington Post analysis has found, helping seed the growth that has made him the world’s richest person.”

Let’s have some real savings and cut Musk off completely.

I suspect it’s a technology platform so there may be developments not yet disclosed.

What a shame you’re antagonistic to newer technologies but fine with tranny comic books being imposed on foreign nations.

What necessary technology are you referring to?

Technology that would assist with a Mars mission.

Americans don’t need that either.

All you’re saying is that we need to waste money now so we know how to waste more money in the future.

Everything else can be handled through commercial endeavors. We don’t need to waste taxpayer dollars on it.

Same can be said for any number of questionable big-gov boondoggles that you mindlessly support.

Those who get government money to produce something useful (like Musk) cannot be compared to deep state give away programs.

The US has become an oligarchy, that's what has happened, it's over, the United States is over, we're turning into another Russia.

You should move to Canada and hide.

Repubs love to spend also

Everyone loves to spend. Unfortunately, we've overspent to the tune of $36,000,000,000,000. Hence DOGE.
