I am noit deciding to forget about an untraceable 4.7 tril in US treasury
payouts. Here's Google-Gemini.
"The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) reported that
approximately $4.7 trillion in Treasury payments were previously missing
critical traceability codes, specifically the Treasury Account Symbol (TAS).

The TAS is an identification code that links a Treasury payment to a specific
budget line item, enabling financial transparency. The issue was that the TAS
field was optional for these payments, and often left blank, making it
difficult to track where the money was going. As of February 17, 2025, the TAS
field is now a mandatory requirement for all Treasury payments, aiming to
increase transparency and accountability, as reported by DOGE on X."

I am concerned with survival. Our ability to survive as a nation state
declined under King Joey. The trust you claim, only ran one-way. The Europeans
protested the install of the Pershing missiles after the USSR installed SS20's.
They danced to the tune that benefited the CCCP. Today? They dance to Qatari
cash which Europe is flush with, all the time expecting us to fight Putin for
them. Incongrience here. The export import imbalance was a thing by the wealthy
to max profit and min loss. It has failed for the rest of us. Now? We will see
if Don's hardball works for us or not? If not we can always go back to the
Socialist International crap.
Chill with the straw men and make some attempt to engage in discussion instead
of the whataboutism deluge. It makes your position seem - what's the Maga term
for this again - ah yes "weak". Nobody reasonable would dispute your concern
about fraud or waste—whether it’s in USAID, EV chargers, or anywhere else.
Misuse of public funds should be exposed and corrected. The fact that you think
that "team progressive" is walking around trying to defend fraud and waste... I
admire the openness but you're proving with every post how you'll believed any
contrived, out-of-context statement. Fraud and waste do matter. But let’s be
real about scale and focus.
A few bad actors siphoning $6 million or a poorly executed rollout of EV
chargers should be criticized. But these stories are small fires compared to
the inferno of wealth transfer the US continues to quietly normalized. Trump's
2017 tax cuts handed $1.9 trillion to the top income brackets. His businesses
profited directly from government travel and campaign events. COVID relief saw
hundreds of billions flow to corporations that laid off workers anyway. So the
question isn’t: “Is waste bad?” Of course it is. But you lack belief in your
own judgement and ability to question, instead always paroting your MAGA media
consumption. Because why not ask: "Why am I only being fed/parotting outrage
when it’s helping someone poorer than me?"
Because let’s face it: a lot of this fraud-flavored outrage isn’t about
corruption. It’s emotional bait. It’s algorithmically optimized to tell you
that someone somewhere—immigrant, aid recipient, poor foreigner—is stealing
your money. But you’re not supposed to get angry when a billionaire parks your
tax refund in the Caymans or buys back stock with bailout money. That silence?
That’s designed. And your whataboutism propagates it. And then we come to the
word you use: survival. If we really mean “survival,” then it has to mean
systems-level thinking: infrastructure, education, housing, energy, clean air,
economic dignity. Not just here—but abroad too. Because starving kids/parents
don’t stay put. Collapsing states become migratory pressure points. Survival
means reducing the instability that breeds collapse, and that’s what public
investment and foreign aid should do—when managed well.
And that leads to the heart of it: relevance and responsibility. The problem
isn’t that aid or green tech investments are fraudulent. It’s that you don't
demand better from those with actual power. If you believe in accountability,
then start asking: Why is it that corruption at the bottom enrages you, but
corruption at the top earns loyalty, cults of personality, and silence?
If you're serious about national survival, then start demanding returns from
the real beneficiaries of this privileged system built around the dollar: the
hedge/investment funds, the monopolies, silicon valley, the families with
dynastic wealth. And if they scream “class war,” why not let them? They’re
cleaning the floor with you guys; dominating you up to the flavor/direction of
your outrage as I demonstrate here. Helping people isn’t the problem.
Mismanaging it isn’t an excuse. Worshipping power while punching down is
exactly what your dreaded elite wants you to do: Sit around online and post
your outrage instead of getting ahead by asking the those with the
resources/influence where your cut is from the Dollar privilege and global
financial dominion. That would get you your hydrogen car but I don't think you
even want that. You'd rather cling to your obviously engineered outrage and
continue whataboutism.
