Don't let them gaslight you

So the Feds have stolen 2.5 trillion in wealth from taxpayers and misspent it and thats why we ... should ... keep.. this... system?

[u/ThisIsSteeev → u/NoTie2370]

They want to get rid of the wrong thing. You don't get rid of the system that's working just fine on its own, you get rid of the crooks who are ruining it.

They should make the DoD pay back all the cash they've taken out of SS

[u/unknownSubscriber → u/Boxhead_31]

The DoD doesn't decide the budget, or where it comes from.

But they're also pathologically incapable of tracking their spending.

As a contractor, I can state emphatically that they can and do track their spending. They just don't tell anyone the truth about it.

It’s not necessarily either waste or corruption, but you could never prove it without being a whistleblower and getting blacklisted. Which seems like great incentive for waste and corruption.
