Pwns doesn't seem to have gotten past that initial step
So for starters:
Yes, the Pentagon doesn't have a clue where 20% of the money goes
and that's year over year since we've been bothering to ask them where it went
Now as far as that dumpster over there...
We can begin the conversation
Yes, the School lunch program is not efficient and should only cost $4.00 a child instead of $6.25
so it's under serious investigation by the present administration
I believe I already shot this one down before...
That amount of money is more than the DoD has spent in its entire history. It's a nonsense number. Your 20% accounts for $140 billion of Trump's 2019 budget (which I think is a peace-time record), and at that rate it takes 178 years of that much lost to get to $25T.
I'm not shilling for our defense budget or wasteful procurement policies. The point is that Ocasio-Cortez is again showing to be a very innumerate econ major and I get a kick out of all the liberal dumb-dumbs on Twitter are talking about how the GOP is afraid of a "bright young woman color" when really she's perfect to keep center stage as a mascot for the liberal wing of the Democrat party.
BTW, even the
New York Times has called her out over this.
Triggered..?
Nobody is taking the 25 trillion any more seriously than Climate Change is a Chinese Hoax
or "We've already written up a new healthcare plan it's the best in the world, you're going to love it.."
or "I will get rid of ISIS in six months.."
or "I will reduce the $18 trillion national debt by vigorously eliminating waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government, ending redundant government programs and growing the economy to increase tax revenues."
or "I will cut the budget by 20 percent by simply renegotiating..."
I can go on... would you like more "things" to take seriously ?
However as Trump defenders love to do:
"what Ocasio said starts an interesting conversation "
see how that works - get used to it
