Last year the federal govt paid a trillion in "interest" and "lost/misplaced" another 500 billion. So that's 1.5 trillion in one year that couldve done something but did absolutely nothing. This hotel megastructure was built in Saudi Arabia from 2004-2012 and cost 15-16billion total:


You might say oh they used slaves blah blah. ok. labor cost is 15-30% for structures this size. Let's just add a much higher labor cost and say it would cost 25billion without slave labor. With the money that was lost or went to interest (meaning did fuckall for us) we couldve built one of these in every state. Just from the money lost or spent on interest in ONE YEAR alone. A decade of that, we could have 600 ornate megastructures of this size around the country. but we dont have any of that. Instead in our entire 250 year history we have a capitol building, couple monuments, and a few shitty museums.
hard to argue against doge when you see what these large sums of money that are STOLEN from us can actually accomplish. we have a federal budget around 5 trillion dollars and not shit to show for it
