@Suzianne saidI have never once said that they do not have money. They have the money, it is in the treasury. The issue is do they own the money , an issue which you have started.
You need to stop saying the government has no money.
It makes you sound like a 4 year old.
They do not own the money.
Someone else please jump in here, even if you think like Susiann , so you can give us another point of view.

I suggest you go back over the definition of 'own' again.
And btw, on multiple occasions, you have said that the government "has no money". You lie like the Signal chat users.
@Suzianne saidThe government has no money, they have our money. I have noticed one of the weapons of libs who have nothing to write about is to play word games.

Have at it. Gaslight a non sequitur.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidSo you figure Trump's caving in IRS RIGHT NOW and his real plan to replace income from IRS is to do tariffs, that is a GOOD thing because Trump said so......
Exactly..."First-World problems" ......These people think they are suffering under a dictatorship and have no rights....They need to spend a month under a real dictatorship in Africa/South America/Asia.
They brag up how great the economy is in China and have no idea how miserable the people are there or how bad they have it.
@AverageJoe1 saidThe money you spend on taxes is NOT your money after you spend it on taxes!

This is so elementary that I wonder why you wonder why we say Trumpublicans are stupid.
Not only are you being stupid about this, you're being willfully stupid about it.
@sonhouse saidSure, people who love money would say this, because they get to keep more of their money. They hate that they have to spend it on government, so they make it up that the money stays theirs so that they can sleep at night.
So you figure Trump's caving in IRS RIGHT NOW and his real plan to replace income from IRS is to do tariffs, that is a GOOD thing because Trump said so......
Yeah, it's stupid.
@Suzianne saidNow I see our problem. You say we 'spend' the money we send to government. An interesting choice of words which are at your disposal. This, then, should shine a real bright light.
The money you spend on taxes is NOT your money after you spend it on taxes!

Websters:: Spend.
"pay out (money) in buying or hiring goods or services".
Let us stipulate that we are buying neither goods nor services. Even our socialist will have to confirm that.
So instead of re-writing your comment for you, I drop the ball back into your court to re-write the sentence, that it might make sense.

@Very-Rusty saidI saw an amusing meme over on bluesky; it takes a lot of stupid to make Canada hate you.
It is really a shame and very sad to see the World is looking at the U.S.A. as a Country we can't trust anymore. I never thought I would live to see the day, but here we are.

@Suzianne saidCoins and bills are the property of the United States government, not the property of the person who happens to have them in his hands at any given moment. If coins and bills were owned by the person who had them in his hands, then it would not be a crime for him to burn them or otherwise destroy them, just as a tv set owner commits no crime if he destroys his own tv set.
You can't just act like your Orange Jesus and decide that whatever stupid-ass thing in the world that you claim is real.
Like you say that the government has no money. What kind of stupid-ass stuff is that?
It's NOT your money, goofball.

@moonbus said@moonbus, The person(s) very much disliked is the Orange Faced wanna be King Trump and Elon Musk who wasn't even elected but selected by the King to do the dirty work of ripping apart the government and agencies. Hell even the weather forecasts are going to suffer as people aren't going to be warned about tornado's and things of that nature as far in advance as they were, which will mean lost lives.

This is straight out of Machiavelli’s play book: the prince has his major domo do all the dirty work, and when the public rises in anger, the prince will blame everything on the major domo and feed him to the lions.
@moonbus saidIndeed, He will throw Musk under the bus just like he did Pence. Oh that was Elon not me. People are seeing through him and what he is doing now.

@Very-Rusty saidWhat surprises me is that the people within his inner circle don’t realize that loyalty to him is never reciprocated. He threw a Rudy Giuliani under a bus, and he would throw his own grandmother under a bus.

@moonbus saidIndeed, there is not doubt in my mind about it. I wonder how Rich this is making him and Elon Musk?
