When it comes to socialists, dumocrats and and their insane spending, I always think that if waste, fraud, and abuse weren't baked into govt spending, maybe we would have enough money to spend on some of their pie in the sky ideas. Maybe.
But they never want fiscal responsibility, because they're too dumb to realize there's plenty of money for govt if it was spent responsibly. They're just too dumb to pick up on the fact that we are taxed so insanely and heavily, that we the people can't fund them any more. They need to realize that fiscal responsibility is the best way for them to actually have *more* money to spend.
Also, they seem to think that once they start sucking all the money from those who actually earn it, that it's a never ending tap. As a group, along with their buds the dumocrats, they lack the ability to look a few years down the road to when all the high earners have left for saner states. Hell, Mamdani is already out of money.
