YouCut


Recommended Posts

Have any of you ever been to http://majorityleader.gov/YouCut/? It's a site where each day, five new programs are shown with how much money could be saved over a period of time. Most of the programs that are shown are absolutely worthless and useless programs.

 

It's a really great site to show how terrible our government is at spending money. It's actually downright embarrassing.

 

You can click on the side links to view programs that have been cut since being shown on the site.

This is one of my favorite absolute FAILS by our government.

No big deal. There's just $1 billion of useless coins sitting in a [expletive]ing vault, while the the government wants to tax the shit out of hardworking Americans that don't sit on their ass all day.

where's the option to cut military spending?

 

Where's the option to get out of the Middle East to cut spending like Obama said when he was elected? That guys a complete moron. Lets cut spending, have our country attacked, and then complain we didn't do enough to protect our country! Brilliant!

 

Spending can be cut everywhere. However, the programs on that site are borderline useless. Do you not see a problem having over $1 billion in useless commemorative coins sitting in a vault?

I like how I ask a question and you have to start rambling about stuff that is completely unrelated. Why did this just turn into an Obama issue? I think its well documented here that I wasn't an Obama supporter before the election, and I have never really been much of a fan. But then again, you're the one that thinks everything is wasteful.

 

BTW, why should the federal reserve flood the market with $1 billion? Do you want inflation? Yes, it was a waste to produce them. But at the same time, who controlled congress AND the white house in 2005?

Maybe because you mentioned cutting spending for the war, which was not listed there? I made it pretty obvious that they only list a certain amount each day, and you were obviously trying to get an argument about the war. Don't ask stupid questions, or pose them as stupid, and you won't get an answer like that.

 

And, where the hell did I say I want them on the market? The government screws enough shit up, and that's one thing I hope they won't screw up.

 

You can have a point with the military spending, but the way you made your post, you sound like a pompous ass.

I love how the programs on there should be cut due to "potential fraud or abuse". Woah, things can be abused? Never knew that, maybe we should just get rid of EVERYTHING with that potential! Good bye medicare/medicaid, you provide prescription drugs, which can be abused!

Good thing that's not what I said at all. The way you posted your comment, you were 100% looking for an argument, and being a complete pompous ass. It's what you always do. I never there wasn't waste with military spending, and I never said there was. The original response was because you were obviously looking for an argument.

 

I also love the card you try to play next, where you try and make humor out of the spending, when it's in fact obvious that it's incredibly stupid spending, and you like to takes everything to the extreme.

 

I guess you didn't know that some things may be more inclined to fraud and abuse then others? Of course you didn't.

No, I asked if anyone has ever been on the site, and what they thought. Also, there's never been a time when you've handed my ass to me. Not one time, and there will never be a time for that.

 

I guess you started the QB and HB thread (that you stopped making for whatever reason) to pimp Aaron Rodgers, right?
