Wow, I would have thought that commissions already existed that would dictate how to better spend government money. How has this gone unchecked for so long!
The worst is that depending on the interest attached to the trillions of dollars there wouldn't be any way to get rid of it for centuries! With no way of getting out of it.
@@private2725 correct, sir! New exponential spending can’t help but equal socialism further out just due to tax burden wing so high as to leave the public still holding a hand out to the Government. Especially now, when so many no -necessities are deemed vital by the brainwashed.

@@corawoods4488 LOL i think you might be confusing Republicans with Democrats. Most of the stuff you mentioned started with Biden. In all truth though, it is one party against the people. The political party propaganda is just to distract us.
There are no blank stares in the audience, because the 'audience' isn't even there. Chairs are empty, no one's home. The politicians spend money from corporations to get elected, and then ram through 'legislation' and spending that only helps the corporate donors. Most of the corporations would've gone bankrupt ages ago had there not been such fantastic 'business' opportunities created by the government. And the only reason that these 'businesses' don't really have any competition is because of all the regulations for 'safety' of some kind created by the very corporations as a point to heavily limit and restrict any up-and-comers that could compete with them.

Watching a senator harangue to an empty Senate chamber, explaining how we waste taxpayers' billions, is all we need to know about what a disaster our Congress has become.
All part of a web of lies the federal govt feeds us. There is no such thing as taxpayer dollars. It is an excuse to not fund programs that people desperately need, why would they do this? Look at education for example. If you don't fund public schools, that leaves a space for for profit charter schools to come in to reap profits. Same for Big pharma, same for healthcare. Taxpayers don't fund the federal govt. The federal govt does not spend tax payer money, all govt spending is paid for by entering in numbers into bank accounts.
@@henrygustav7948 Charter schools are way better then public schools on average. If government didn’t zone school and gave money depending on performance and such we might see public schools turn it around. Most government funded things are full of corruption department of Ed/California’s high speed rail/Ffs I saw a bathroom government built in a park that cost millions... there’s so many examples of this shit.
@@rawr6266 I'd have to see some stats on that, but it IS the Governments fault no doubt. They should be fully funding public schools period. They don't because that gives them an excuse to open up Charter schools many of which operate at the same level or underperform. Yes govt funded things are full of corruption, so are privately funded things. The difference is the with Govt at least we elect those people. There are tons of examples of neoliberalism all over, defunding and cutting Govt spending so that private actors can have a market from which to profit off of. That is why we don't have healthcare, its why we don't have fully funded public schools, its why we have unemployment. Making life difficult, making getting healthcare difficult, making getting a job difficult is all a part of policy of control because that means you are more willing to take on the crap jobs, willing to put up with employer abuses, willing to take low wages. This is called neoliberalism and we have had it for decades. The federal govt can provide the money to states to fund all their priorities and needs if they wanted to. Its all by design and none of it is necessary.
Yes...but why would anyone think that this wouldn't be the case since it's always been the case. Axiomatically, people in government aren't connected to the pain of production - and its this pain that tells people to be careful, don't spend, save.
What do you bet they are funneling the money back into their own pockets? They probably call their friends and say, "Hey Dr. SwampCreature, do you want to make some money with me? Answer: "sure".... "OK you make up something stupid I can fund and we'll spit it 50/50.

And it's annoying that it never does, because I actually hope to have kids, I try to think of the world they will grow up in, praying america is still kind of rich when they grow up. I can only hope video's like this raises some sort of awareness to people. I don't want america to be an economic rome downfall #2. It doesn't have to be if we have a competent government that keeps our currency and markets worth something. And our deficit low. If not, I hope the government really does get overthrown and manages to get some of the debt erased (assuming our military is still the strongest at that point, and we don't get attacked or prevented from doing so by our debtors.
@@mayakuma All of what he is saying is horseshit. I actually studied federal finances, money and economics, studied Modern monetary theory for years and learn from alot of great economists. What he is saying is ignorant and completely false on many different levels. 1. What is debt what is money? 2. Universal truth undeniable by anyone, one's spending is another's income. The Federal govts spending is the economies income. Without Federal spending, we in the economy will have no income and if we in the economy have no income then we can not spend as well. If we can not spend then others have no income. Which means recession/unemployment. Spending is what keeps our economic system alive and he wants to CUT spending? This video is not raising awareness, it is propagandizing people with FEAR porn.
@@mayakuma Govt debt, public debt is not a problem. The real problem is private debt, mortgages, student loan debt, credit card debt, corporate held debt that jeopardizes our economy NOT Federal govt debt.
@@mayakuma The US dollar is a debt, US treasuries are a debt. All debts have 2 sides to them an asset side and a liability side. What is a liability of the Federal govt is an asset to those who hold the federal govt's liabilities. Those liabilities are transferrable debt instruments as ALL money is. US treasuries are debt instruments that pay interest. The US Govt can create as much or as little as it wants to. Erasing our debt means to erase our money supply and to throw our economy into a recession/depression.

When political donations are rewarded with lobbying access which endorse this waste, often sub contracted to those donors, you can join the dots in a very corrupt system. Big government and big corporations share the same wasteful excesses but size covers their inefficiency.
I would not limit any kind of corruption to just America. Anywhere there are politicians there will be the type of person who will be attracted to the many ways that they can profit by manipulating the system(s) to their advantage. Just take a closer look at the EU and Australia! Also Germany has had their share of corruption exposed from time to time. Of course the most "notorious" if you can call it that ... was of course, Hitler! In Other briefer words - one doesn't have to look very far into the present, the past and possibly projected into the future ( although I hope not) and as I implied at the start of this - wherever you find politics and politicians you will find people (greedy people) who will take advantage of any system that doesn't have enough "checks and balances" to prevent this from happening. Over and over again. So, in closing, I'll point out that "Only in America" is rather short sighted. God bless Rand Paul (of Kentucky) and I 🙏 pray - God bless America 🇺🇸!
There’s a few things I like about him but “C’MON MAN, ARE YOU A JUNKIE”? He stands there talking about “wasteful spending” while he’s putting up useless poster boards that costs at LEAST $50 dollars each (something he does all the time). He’s never concerned about wasted money when the republicans are in full control. Just like the left that complains about spending when republicans are in control. Neither party talks about wasted money when they’re the ones wasting it. Government has been throwing away BILLIONS every month for DECADES, and it only gets worse every single year. I do like Paul (mostly), but there’s a lot about him that’s completely hypocritical. Like wasteful spending that he himself has been a part of for YEARS. He’s only bitching about it right now cus it’s the opposition that’s doing it. Next time republicans have total control, he’ll be disregarding all that, and complaining about how “democrats are holding back our progress”. It’s typical left/right rhetoric that is used to distract us while BOTH parties continues to screw us all over. If he REALLY wanted to help cut costs, he would work with congress to get a new bill rolling to pay every politician the minimum wage from the state they “represent”. There’s TONS of other ways they can cut costs to a fraction of what things are now too. But that would mean less pay for him and all his ilk, and taxpayer funded travel expenses, meals and all the other day to day things we pay for. Then he’d work to get rid of their retirement plan that pays them WAY more after a few years of “work” than 90% of the population makes working 40 hours a week at a minimum wage job. Then there’s the left over yearly budget that gets used on spending sprees that BOTH parties do every year, cus if they don’t use all that money at the end of the year, they don’t get that much for next year’s budget. It was around 80 BILLION left over last year. That could have gone towards restarting the economy, but they all decided to use it for more unnecessary projects and to give themselves some bonuses for “a job well done”. I’m not a fan of either party, but I like the dems LESS than I like republicans. BOTH sides are corrupt to the core and they have been for several decades. They’ve been working together hand in hand since before most of us were even born, to ensure no third party wins any bigger elections, so the people wouldn’t see just how BADLY the two main parties have been screwing us over. The only REAL difference between the two is, democrats screw us and tell us “it’s for our own good” and their media cohorts twist it and convince all their voters it’s the truth. Republicans screw us and tell us “it was the democrats” and fox “news” tells all their viewers “democrats did this” while ignoring what republicans did. This 2-party SHAM they’ve got us trapped in is destroying the country. And it’s all so the two parties can continue lining their pockets and keeping us all divided and only voting for D or R. None of these people REALLY cares about average people. If they did, they would surely be showing it in some way or another. But it’s nothing but “us vs them” BS that’s designed to keep all of us at each other’s throats and distracted so they can continue with business as usual. Sure, Paul certainly seems to “care” more than the average politician, but if it comes to the republican party or the people he “represents”, he’ll choose the party every time. They all will. The sooner we all get that FACT in our heads, the sooner we can ALL unite together and vote in third/fourth/fifth party candidates and have others try to fix all the damages the two main parties have caused for all these years.

Rand Paul & co. should be passing legislation to remove these perks, prevent future frivolous expenditures, & defund these wasteful agencies. THEY are the ones who allocate the money into the bills, THEY are the ones who can take it out. Responsible stewardship over the public's money is their JOB. The more fiscally responsible Congresspeople should get a line item veto, to enable them to challenge & remove such items when they are hidden in unrelated legislation, & place them in a separate bill called "miscellaneous appropriations of taxpayer funds" & then force Congressthieves to vote for or against THAT on C-span. The problem is we elect them & then turn over the entire US Treasury to them, to do as they please without any restraint at all. Then when Rand Paul spends an hour bitching & bloviating about it, and nothing more, we orgasm. Oooh, at least one guy is "doing something." No, he's really not.
@@ajcarr1965 Technically, it ought not fall on Rand Paul to do something. Technically, we the government-school-indoctrinated sheeple could also be doing something about it. The first thing we could be doing, is, "no longer being part of the problem." Unconstitutional laws can't strangle the economy if they can't be enforced. To that end: "Jury Nullification: The Evolution of a Doctrine" has 3/4 of the answer. The remaining 1/4 is "run for state legislature and sheriff and win," after reading and understanding that book.

If they force covid patients into nursing homes, they go to jail. If they tell citizens they aren't allowed to go to work, they get removed from office. If they say they want to confiscate firearms from innocent Americans, we remove them immediately. Not wait for an election, immediate removal, with prosecutions when they break the law....every single time and every single criminal.

@@americanhero8606 no the issue with reparations for slavery is that not every African gets the reparations, and more so the ones that actually suffered are no longer alive.

Puerto Rico I agree should be a state but not DC. DC is a Federal territory that is meant for the Federal government. It is designed to be a separate entity from the other states also DC is too small for it to be a state in my personal opinion. I am aware that you and many others disagree.
John Bell It was a great idea but electing the biggest alligator to drain their home perhaps wasn't the best strategy.

A poor President with little interest in enriching themselves, either in or out of office, would make drastically different decisions. The chances of that happening are slim.

That so called gas station is a disgusting use of the word! Its not a gas station where cars pump gas into their tanks! Thete is no gas station for people to pump gas and by some potato chips and soda. This Paul is using the term gas station and even acts confused because the cars dont run on natural gas. The reality is that money went to the restoration of a massive natural gas drilling and pipe lines to distribute that natural gas to be piped into to a nearby city of hundreds of thousands of people. It provides natural gas for heating and electricity production for a city near by and produces enough natural gas to pipe in and truck out massive amounts of natural gas to increase the standard of living in the region. We are the ones that bombed the massive natural gas extraction operation in the first place. So this vast natural gas field has nothing to do with a natursl gas station that fills care with natural gas! That is beyond a lie. Even more absurd is the fact that most of the money was provided by private investment in this massive natural gas extraction and distribution operation because it is a fantastic investment. If you crunch the numbers the Pentagon spent 3 million dollars. The military spent 3 million dollars on what was a 500 million dollar price to get the massive natural gas field back to full production. 3 milliom on a half of a billion dollar restoration is a tiny amount pf money considering hundreds of millions of dollars wealthy Americans and Europeans invested in it. The claim that 30 soldiers were needed to protect a tiny little natural gas station sounds really stupid since cars dont run on natural gas! The truth is 30 afghani soldiers have to be protecting the massive natural gas extraction and distribution facility at all time there is no gas station though there is a pressurised natural gas system so semi trucks can fill their tank with natural gas and then truck it into small towns and ligjtly populated areas to sell so these small communities can power natural gas generators. This 500 million dollar investment with private money that will yield massive profits for the investors has nothing to do with a gas station and the 30 soldiers for security is for a vast network of pipelines and massive storage tanks. It is a prime target for terrorist to blow up so the 30 afghanis soldiers are critical to protecting a natural gas infrastructure and field. Then to add injury to insult our military paid only 3 million dollars on a facility that once operational would reduce dramaticly the costs of the military to operate in areas that had no way of producing electricity. Its all part of a huge huge plan to modernize the energy production in the entire region using private capital from billionaire investors . The military now spends many millions less by contributing the three million to the project. Every thing these republicans, pretending to be fiscally responsible, is based on lies, exaggerations and outright bizzare claims about a non existent gas station that only has natural gas which is useless for passenger vehicles that this republican just said doesn't make any sense because cars don't run off of natural gas. Republicans have a thing for being lied into becoming angry enough to want to kill there fellow americans and over throw the government based on totally fabricated claims. Im sure Rand Paul believes what he is saying because he got his information from people that lied to him about but republicans could learn a lesson or two from AOC! Research Research Research before committing ones self to any kind of story or claim that one has no knowledge of except for the story they are told.

The estimated cost for the U.S. was $323 billion. To help pay for the war, the U.S. took on more debt, borrowing about $211 billion.

He's an idiot. Republicans spend while in power while lowering the tax burden on the rich and most profitable corporations in the history of the world. They even subsidize the wealthiest corporations so they are getting tax refunds and paying zero into income tax. That tax burden is passed down to people who actually have to work to provide for themselves and their families. Doctors, lawyers, dentists, accountants, surgeons... working professionals. While they give Jeff Bezos 190 million dollar return. To me there is no humor in that. Democrats are the paid opposition. They are there to make people think thrre is a conflict in Washington. Obama made Bush's tax cuts permanent, he enacted Romney care without the public option, he was willing to cut social security.. Biden started strong with $15/hr, everyone will get a $2000.00 check... he collapsed right away, $1400.00 instead of $2000.00 and we don't have bipartisan support for $15/hr. If you look at Biden's budget closely, without the propaganda pushing your prejudice against it you will find that just like Republican spending bills this is going to be a corporate giveaway. Yes it may have a billion here and there for helping "lazy" people and other leeches. That is so the opposite side can scream a yell about pennies while giving their donors trillions. Biden has fought for years to cut social security, Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benefits, all the social programs. Nothing is off the table. His words not mine. He wrote the crime bill that has made America the largest penal colony in the world. The United States has more of it's population behind bars per capita than any other country in the world. Biden also wrote the precursor to the patriot act the bill that allowed the United States government to spy on it's citizens. Both of these parties are corrupt and are puppets for their donors.

He bashes left, yet he is a walking inconsistency, and usually forgets, that it is hes funders, and right wing think tanks, that is responsible, for the current state of US.
No one. Literally no one is listening. They don't care. They aren't concerned about money spent in bills unless it has an effect on their OWN pockets. If they're paid to pass ridiculous funding bills, they will. If the bill contains any type of raise, bonus, or compensation that benefits them despite ANY OTHER things in the bill, they will pass it. No one is listening. No one WILL listen. Until these people are removed from office, or war comes to our shores, nothing will change. If war does come to our shores, these people are liabilities not to be sided with.
I think he's still being way too generous "calling them wasteful government spending". What he's describing the tax payer money getting laundered, aka corruption.
Try and get that past congress, LOL. Which branch of government you think will give up their powers or their budget? It's like with the military. If you don't spend the budget, it gets cut. So, if anything remains, you waste it so the cut never happens.
I just love Rand Paul. God bless you Mr Paul. Finally someone willing to stand up bring all the waste to Congress face. Not democrats or Republicans, but ALL congressional employees in control of our money!!!
Not only do we as a society need to apply this mindset to government spending, we need to extrapolate it to nearly every business and institution. Cut your costs, keep your costs down. make products affordable again. (college especially)
This is some of the craziest insane spending I’ve ever seen!! How can this even be possible? How do they get away with this? You can tell it’s a way to funnel money..
This is how politicians get extra money! They tell these people you get money and give me money both to get elected and put $ in their pockets they donate a portion! This seems to be a monthly paycheck.
You can tart any study up into something of profound scientific importance when all it does is keep your department afloat and increases the magical student attraction to a University with a high research profile. Science is just like politics. It's all about appearance above substance.

There are no blank stares in the audience, because the 'audience' isn't even there.
Chairs are empty, no one's home.
The politicians spend money from corporations to get elected, and then ram through 'legislation' and spending that only helps the corporate donors.
Most of the corporations would've gone bankrupt ages ago had there not been such fantastic 'business' opportunities created by the government. And the only reason that these 'businesses' don't really have any competition is because of all the regulations for 'safety' of some kind created by the very corporations as a point to heavily limit and restrict any up-and-comers that could compete with them.

All part of a web of lies the federal govt feeds us. There is no such thing as taxpayer dollars. It is an excuse to not fund programs that people desperately need, why would they do this? Look at education for example. If you don't fund public schools, that leaves a space for for profit charter schools to come in to reap profits. Same for Big pharma, same for healthcare. Taxpayers don't fund the federal govt. The federal govt does not spend tax payer money, all govt spending is paid for by entering in numbers into bank accounts.
@@henrygustav7948 Charter schools are way better then public schools on average.

@@rawr6266 I'd have to see some stats on that, but it IS the Governments fault no doubt. They should be fully funding public schools period. They don't because that gives them an excuse to open up Charter schools many of which operate at the same level or underperform. Yes govt funded things are full of corruption, so are privately funded things. The difference is the with Govt at least we elect those people. There are tons of examples of neoliberalism all over, defunding and cutting Govt spending so that private actors can have a market from which to profit off of. That is why we don't have healthcare, its why we don't have fully funded public schools, its why we have unemployment. Making life difficult, making getting healthcare difficult, making getting a job difficult is all a part of policy of control because that means you are more willing to take on the crap jobs, willing to put up with employer abuses, willing to take low wages. This is called neoliberalism and we have had it for decades.
The federal govt can provide the money to states to fund all their priorities and needs if they wanted to. Its all by design and none of it is necessary.
It absolutely makes my blood boil to see the wasteful spending of our government!

2. Universal truth undeniable by anyone, one's spending is another's income. The Federal govts spending is the economies income.

I would not limit any kind of corruption to just America. Anywhere there are politicians there will be the type of person who will be attracted to the many ways that they can profit by manipulating the system(s) to their advantage. Just take a closer look at the EU and Australia! Also Germany has had their share of corruption exposed from time to time. Of course the most "notorious" if you can call it that ... was of course, Hitler! In Other briefer words - one doesn't have to look very far into the present, the past and possibly projected into the future ( although I hope not) and as I implied at the start of this - wherever you find politics and politicians you will find people (greedy people) who will take advantage of any system that doesn't have enough "checks and balances"
to prevent this from happening. Over and over again. So, in closing, I'll point out that "Only in America"
is rather short sighted.

There’s a few things I like about him but “C’MON MAN, ARE YOU A JUNKIE”? He stands there talking about “wasteful spending” while he’s putting up useless poster boards that costs at LEAST $50 dollars each (something he does all the time). He’s never concerned about wasted money when the republicans are in full control. Just like the left that complains about spending when republicans are in control. Neither party talks about wasted money when they’re the ones wasting it. Government has been throwing away BILLIONS every month for DECADES, and it only gets worse every single year. I do like Paul (mostly), but there’s a lot about him that’s completely hypocritical. Like wasteful spending that he himself has been a part of for YEARS. He’s only bitching about it right now cus it’s the opposition that’s doing it. Next time republicans have total control, he’ll be disregarding all that, and complaining about how “democrats are holding back our progress”. It’s typical left/right rhetoric that is used to distract us while BOTH parties continues to screw us all over. If he REALLY wanted to help cut costs, he would work with congress to get a new bill rolling to pay every politician the minimum wage from the state they “represent”. There’s TONS of other ways they can cut costs to a fraction of what things are now too. But that would mean less pay for him and all his ilk, and taxpayer funded travel expenses, meals and all the other day to day things we pay for. Then he’d work to get rid of their retirement plan that pays them WAY more after a few years of “work” than 90% of the population makes working 40 hours a week at a minimum wage job. Then there’s the left over yearly budget that gets used on spending sprees that BOTH parties do every year, cus if they don’t use all that money at the end of the year, they don’t get that much for next year’s budget. It was around 80 BILLION left over last year. That could have gone towards restarting the economy, but they all decided to use it for more unnecessary projects and to give themselves some bonuses for “a job well done”. I’m not a fan of either party, but I like the dems LESS than I like republicans. BOTH sides are corrupt to the core and they have been for several decades. They’ve been working together hand in hand since before most of us were even born, to ensure no third party wins any bigger elections, so the people wouldn’t see just how BADLY the two main parties have been screwing us over. The only REAL difference between the two is, democrats screw us and tell us “it’s for our own good” and their media cohorts twist it and convince all their voters it’s the truth. Republicans screw us and tell us “it was the democrats” and fox “news” tells all their viewers “democrats did this” while ignoring what republicans did. This 2-party SHAM they’ve got us trapped in is destroying the country. And it’s all so the two parties can continue lining their pockets and keeping us all divided and only voting for D or R. None of these people REALLY cares about average people. If they did, they would surely be showing it in some way or another. But it’s nothing but “us vs them” BS that’s designed to keep all of us at each other’s throats and distracted so they can continue with business as usual.
Sure, Paul certainly seems to “care” more than the average politician, but if it comes to the republican party or the people he “represents”, he’ll choose the party every time. They all will. The sooner we all get that FACT in our heads, the sooner we can ALL unite together and vote in third/fourth/fifth party candidates and have others try to fix all the damages the two main parties have caused for all these years.

That's what Trump was undertaking and doing as we speak..... DRAINING THE F-SWAMP !!!~
I say persecute them criminals should not get to retire with the money they stole or the lodge that they ruin in the process I know that there's judgment but I can't wait for what is happening now Lord come soon
No. We need to simply hold them to the oath they take, the paycheck they recieve, and their duty to actually b public servants. When someone like Newsom, de Blasio, whitmer, or biden actually intentionally make stupid, unconstitutional, anti American, and/or dangerous decisions, then we recall, impeach, and/or arrest them. If they force covid patients into nursing homes, they go to jail. If they tell citizens they aren't allowed to go to work, they get removed from office. If they say they want to confiscate firearms from innocent Americans, we remove them immediately. Not wait for an election, immediate removal, with prosecutions when they break the law....every single time and every single criminal.
Congress gives themselves a raise every year. Not to mention mandatory vacations. I don't hear Rand Paul complaining about that wasteful spending.
Senator Paul one of few voices of reason.
... you’re joking, right?
And the headline will read, "Rand Paul seeks to defund U.S. scientific research capabilities.

@@TwoTreesStudio The fact they exclusively suppress right-leaning videos (and with bogus or blank reasons no less) is what people complain about.

It's common knowledge...again, think critically and for yourself.
I love how you say "it's common knowledge" (appeal to majority opinion) and then in the same sentence "think critically and for yourself" (warning to avoid blindly following the herd). In my critical opinion, there's no evidence of some big tech conspiracy to censor conservatives. But even if there was, Google and every other website has a first amendment right to do it. If you don't like it following the rules on someone else's website, go make your own instead of being a little bitch about it. Conservatives are the ones who went and killed the fairness doctrine anyway, so IDK why the sudden change of heart and push for govt regulation of online forum moderators from the right...

“Wasteful Spending”. That’s exactly what that is. We as “Tax Payers” should get that money back.
I agree with you. We need to give TRILLIONs in reparations for both slavery, Indian genocide and imperialist conquest of Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Make PR and DC states and give them 2 senators each! Merge the Dakotas and the Carolinas to remove their Senators!
@@americanhero8606 That would be wasteful spending on an insane scale. Let's hope no one could be that stupid or ignorant
@@americanhero8606 no the issue with reparations for slavery is that not every African gets the reparations, and more so the ones that actually suffered are no longer alive. Even the Civil Rights movement has a limitation to who gets the money. Native American tribes deserve it more for the constant breaking of treaties and genocide. Puerto Rico I agree should be a state but not DC. DC is a Federal territory that is meant for the Federal government. It is designed to be a separate entity from the other states also DC is too small for it to be a state in my personal opinion. I am aware that you and many others disagree.

This is why we ELECTED President Donald Trump!! To DRAIN the SWAMP!!!
John Bell It was a great idea but electing the biggest alligator to drain their home perhaps wasn't the best strategy. I'll credit Trump for trying but when you're part of the system that's the problem it's hard to attack yourself. With Presidential elections costing so much, which really is a waste of money, only those who belong to the system get a chance. A poor President with little interest in enriching themselves, either in or out of office, would make drastically different decisions. The chances of that happening are slim.
Rand Paul, obviously we need 200 senators like you.
God bless you and your family
Even 99 like him would be great🤣
Why on earth would you celebrate an anarchist like Rand Paul in government? That makes as much sense as tapping an arsonist to serve as your town’s Fire Department Chief.

EXCATLY right. Before it got out of hand
The spending described by Senator Paul is inexcusable!
The money you spend on shoes is inexcusable
That so called gas station is a disgusting use of the word! Its not a gas station where cars pump gas into their tanks! Thete is no gas station for people to pump gas and by some potato chips and soda. This Paul is using the term gas station and even acts confused because the cars dont run on natural gas. The reality is that money went to the restoration of a massive natural gas drilling and pipe lines to distribute that natural gas to be piped into to a nearby city of hundreds of thousands of people. It provides natural gas for heating and electricity production for a city near by and produces enough natural gas to pipe in and truck out massive amounts of natural gas to increase the standard of living in the region.
We are the ones that bombed the massive natural gas extraction operation in the first place. So this vast natural gas field has nothing to do with a natursl gas station that fills care with natural gas! That is beyond a lie. Even more absurd is the fact that most of the money was provided by private investment in this massive natural gas extraction and distribution operation because it is a fantastic investment. If you crunch the numbers the Pentagon spent 3 million dollars. The military spent 3 million dollars on what was a 500 million dollar price to get the massive natural gas field back to full production. 3 milliom on a half of a billion dollar restoration is a tiny amount pf money considering hundreds of millions of dollars wealthy Americans and Europeans invested in it. The claim that 30 soldiers were needed to protect a tiny little natural gas station sounds really stupid since cars dont run on natural gas! The truth is 30 afghani soldiers have to be protecting the massive natural gas extraction and distribution facility at all time there is no gas station though there is a pressurised natural gas system so semi trucks can fill their tank with natural gas and then truck it into small towns and ligjtly populated areas to sell so these small communities can power natural gas generators. This 500 million dollar investment with private money that will yield massive profits for the investors has nothing to do with a gas station and the 30 soldiers for security is for a vast network of pipelines and massive storage tanks. It is a prime target for terrorist to blow up so the 30 afghanis soldiers are critical to protecting a natural gas infrastructure and field. Then to add injury to insult our military paid only 3 million dollars on a facility that once operational would reduce dramaticly the costs of the military to operate in areas that had no way of producing electricity. Its all part of a huge huge plan to modernize the energy production in the entire region using private capital from billionaire investors . The military now spends many millions less by contributing the three million to the project. Every thing these republicans, pretending to be fiscally responsible, is based on lies, exaggerations and outright bizzare claims about a non existent gas station that only has natural gas which is useless for passenger vehicles that this republican just said doesn't make any sense because cars don't run off of natural gas. Republicans have a thing for being lied into becoming angry enough to want to kill there fellow americans and over throw the government based on totally fabricated claims. Im sure Rand Paul believes what he is saying because he got his information from people that lied to him about but republicans could learn a lesson or two from AOC! Research Research Research before committing ones self to any kind of story or claim that one has no knowledge of except for the story they are told.

USA borrowed to fight World War II:
Taking part in this war was very expensive for the U.S. Not only did the U.S. pay for its own military, it also lent money to Britain and other countries fighting the German military. The estimated cost for the U.S. was $323 billion. To help pay for the war, the U.S. took on more debt, borrowing about $211 billion.

@@robertschwab4503 kinda right but as dark as it is to say the usa only escaped the great depression BECAUSE of joining world war 2 it woke the sleeping giant and let america restart and reman its industry and economy but the problem was the goverment didnt see the debt as a big deal and put off paying it off in order to let the country enjoy its prosperity after a long time of darkness but that is what allowed the debt to climb to modern insane numbers everyone just passes the responbility of actually paying of the debt to the next guy then he does the same to the next guy etc etc

I never realized how funny he can be, he is making great points while making people LOL at the same time.
That the dems
He's an idiot. Republicans spend while in power while lowering the tax burden on the rich and most profitable corporations in the history of the world. They even subsidize the wealthiest corporations so they are getting tax refunds and paying zero into income tax. That tax burden is passed down to people who actually have to work to provide for themselves and their families. Doctors, lawyers, dentists, accountants, surgeons... working professionals. While they give Jeff Bezos 190 million dollar return.
To me there is no humor in that. Democrats are the paid opposition. They are there to make people think thrre is a conflict in Washington. Obama made Bush's tax cuts permanent, he enacted Romney care without the public option, he was willing to cut social security.. Biden started strong with $15/hr, everyone will get a $2000.00 check... he collapsed right away, $1400.00 instead of $2000.00 and we don't have bipartisan support for $15/hr.
If you look at Biden's budget closely, without the propaganda pushing your prejudice against it you will find that just like Republican spending bills this is going to be a corporate giveaway. Yes it may have a billion here and there for helping "lazy" people and other leeches. That is so the opposite side can scream a yell about pennies while giving their donors trillions.
Biden has fought for years to cut social security, Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benefits, all the social programs. Nothing is off the table. His words not mine. He wrote the crime bill that has made America the largest penal colony in the world. The United States has more of it's population behind bars per capita than any other country in the world. Biden also wrote the precursor to the patriot act the bill that allowed the United States government to spy on it's citizens. Both of these parties are corrupt and are puppets for their donors.
