So Wait...They Passed That Unnecessary $1.7 Trillion Spending Spree Today?

So now Biden just has to sign it in? What convenient timing.

Goodnight US dollar fookin LMAO.

Goodnight middle class. It's just a spending spree of those in power before the fall.

I usually stay away from politics but was just told this and had to have a laugh at this getting passed at lightning speed because the Ukrainian J came to get his **** going.

lmao we are so clueless and spineless. We should be burning all their homes, vacation homes, planes, yachts, cars, etc. to the ground right now. At the very least.

IMPECCABLE timing. Just slip this one in after Zelensky's speech and right before the christmas weekend. Those fukkin' NPC clowns won't even notice.

I knew it had passed the Senate.

This is the first I'm hearing that it has also passed the house. Despite being super massive and none of the legislators voting on it even having sufficient time to read the damn thing.




Reminds me of the Patriot Act. Or TARP. Here...just vote yes.






480 minutes in an 8 hour workday @ 2 minutes reading time per page = 240 pages per day X 4,155 pages in the bill = 17+ work days reading non-stop


I know it is a total pipe dream, but maybe we need a law that the house/senate must allow a reading period of one working day for every 240 pages of a bill before calling a vote?

And another $47 billion to secure the border...of Ukraine.

And a Ukraine Independence Park in Washington.

Lmao boyos.

We're in the end game now. Literally can do as they please, no opposition, and people will still just clock in to earn the very dollar they're imploding for fun.

$1.7 trillion at a snap of the finger. For nothing but insane and ridiculous chit. Hahahaha

So what do you do with cash if it’s going to be even more worthless, the stock market is gay, and Bitcoin is being bent over a log?

Gold and silver boyos.

This went by so fast I have no idea how this is getting funded.

I found this gem though.

Other key provisions in the bill include an overhaul of the 1887 Electoral Count Act aimed at making it harder to overturn a certified presidential election – the first legislative response to the US Capitol insurrection and then-President Donald Trump’s relentless pressure campaign to stay in power despite his 2020 loss.

LMAO

Gotta name them or it'll never change.

EDIT: As bad as the debt looks we could pay it back relatively quickly if we were ruled by people that weren't wasting money on frivelous things and actually had our best interest in mind.

When I was born, the national debt was $5T and 64% of GDP.

When I graduated high school in 2014, it was $18T and 101% of GDP.

8 years later, the deficit is $31T and 122% of GDP.

JFL at how quickly that chit went exponential.

But guys billions going to gay rights and gay monuments. Billions for women who struggle with domestic disputes. It’s so wonderful to fight for this. Also billions for our democracy. This keeps the gov open until September with their phony worthless jobs.

Born @ 4T pretty wild looking back. Not sure how long this can go on for or what it even means. Why not quadrillions? Quintillions? What’s the difference?

Looks like that part is a crowd favorite among the plebs on twitter. They don't care much their quality of life is tanking as long as there's a shot at orange man.

Government has completely abandoned the welfare of the average person. It’s all about enriching you and your allies. Period.

They also know they have all the power and no one is going to do anything about it. It’s not even a hard choice for them at this point
