Interest on the $38.8 trillion national debt has tripled since 2020, and it already costs taxpayers more than defense and Medicaid - Lemmy.World

Does the United States have a spending problem? Obviously, but I really wanted to talk about how the cost of living crisis is presenting itself in your community. That relates to this article because you can’t squeeze blood from a stone. If all of you have no disposable income, no savings, and a job market that can’t support your current cost of living… What happens if you lose your job? Do you default on loan obligations along with America because we are stretched to the edge. Should we vote in members of congress to pass more tax breaks for private jets?Are mods whack? Let me know in the comments.

Mods don’t want us discussing what our back up plans are for job loss. But if you lost your job today, what job would you apply to on indeed, and would there be enough money from that job to pay your current bills? Do you think there is security in your job market if you lose your job?
Mods also don’t want us talking about assassinating the entire Trump administration
Lmao is that what got removed from my last post? Im trying to gauge sentiment here and this is a reading.
I don’t know about your post history. But the mods on .world are very pro-government.
I mean im pro government too. Order is one of the bonuses of living in a society.
So, which government do you like?
I sure do enjoy a democracy even if I have to vote with glass lickers.
So do you want to answer the question or just avoid it? Specifically, which government do you simp for…. Like the mods…
I simp for a government who is able to take on problems I cannot solve as an individual!

So, to be clear…… which government do you simp for? Like, what country?

Because simping for the theory of a perfect society is fine, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

Well I sure do like it here in the USA. I feel like our government could be better at wealth distribution, education, regulations, and democracy. but the people don’t want that. I see nothing wrong with our system, but unfortunately we have about 200 million people that vote but lack civic education. I felt very comfortable traveling through Japan. You could feel the order and safety in the country, like everywhere. I feel like irelands government did pretty well for its people. I don’t feel comfortable simping for someone else’s government because I can only experience mind as a citizen ya know? I enjoy living in my little US democracy even if it’s broken. I just keep encouraging people to fix it.
Well, you are very out of touch with reality. I’m guessing you voted for Trump at least once right?
No vote 2016. Big Biden in 2020 and Kamala 2024. Obama 08 no vote 2012
Out of touch with reality? I’m punched air and watching the world burn, just like you.
