Trump Administration Removes over 400 DHS Employees in Workforce Purge, Half of Those from FEMA

so, no, groceries arent cheaper.

Whats happening with eggs right now?

How do you know they weren't doing anything?

I'm all for cuts in the government, but I have zero evidence that the cuts Trump is making are beneficial to the country. If he wants to balance the budget, cutting a few hundred here and there won't cut it, we need to either raise taxes or cut entitlements, probably both.

Trump, here's a plan that should work:

1. Eliminate cap on SS
2. Eliminate SS benefits for people making >400% FPL
3. Cut military spending by 10%, and allow every agency to stockpile up to 50% of unused yearly budget
4. With excesses from 1&2, create a negative tax bracket for poor people, and start replacing federal welfare programs with equivalent cash
5. Repeat 4 until we have an actual safety net where people can quit terrible jobs and start businesses without worrying how to make rent

1&2 fixes SS shortfalls, 3 cuts much of the rest of the deficit, 4 cuts unnecessary programs (and jobs), and 5 creates real wealth by creating a path out of wage slavery. We'll end up with something like UBI, less federal programs, etc.

But the cuts I've seen look like loyalty purges. I think we should make a lot of cuts, but I don't really trust Trump or Musk to make them.

Was biden's campaign promise to make groceries cheaper day 1? Because that was Trump's promise.
