    Yeah, fuck the debt talk. We’re a fiat country, talking about the debt is brainless nonsense.

    We need to be spending money on things that build up America. If that means debt, it literally doesn’t matter. Talk about the massive waste of money that were spending that debt on, instead.

      Its a good thing you’re spending on infrastructure and services then, and not just building massive amounts of debt due to reduced taxes on the wealthy, defence contracts, propping up AI, and funding the Trump family.

        I mean, obviously we aren’t. But framing that conversation in terms of debt is literally playing into fiscal conservative bullshit. The debt is meaningless, stop treating it like it’s got any value in discussion
