Just read in fiscal year end 2019, the GAO found the federal government made the following improper payments:

Medicaid: 57.4 billion
Medicare: 46.2 billion
Earned income tax credit: 17.4 billion
Other federal programs: 30.8 billion

Yeah, Medicare for all sounds great. Maybe we can triple or quadruple the waste.

The corruption that can exist in those margins is almost too great to resist. What's a million misplaced tax$ between friends when we're already misspending billions?

Those top 3 all went to non productive people. At least Medicare likely included retirees and disabled: people who were or cannot be productive.

So about 100 billion in entitlement waste.
 
I can't for the life of me understand why this Trump peace treaty with the taliban isn't bigger news.

My god if Obama did this they would be ready to ship the guy another nobel peace prize and it would be all over the news for weeks.

No one knows if the taliban will hold up their end of the deal obviously, but if this deal brings peace even for a little while in Afghanistan that's a win. Seems like it should be a bigger deal than how its being talked about.

People who understand economics and who aren't enamored by labels.

Sorry about your luck.
There is no better example of how laziness cultivates groundless arrogance than the fool who thinks because he has an opinion, he spent adequate time collecting valid data to form one.

So speaks the one who by she/he/it's ability to post drivel thinks she/he/it has performed a hard days work. No laziness involved. Sorriness...now that's another story...

I have posted the thoughts of Teddy Roosevelt in the past 24 hours to illustrate what an honest to God Republican thought about the roles of business and government. I hope some here would read for themselves what the men they say they admire, actual greatness and a stall-worth of the GOP and his rugged principles. Now here is another President from another era with his words. People should be aware of their history I believe.

Levi, if my next door neighbor has 250K in student loans, then the SOB should be either an MD, PharmD, DDS, etc.

If the dumbass is a liberal arts major with such high debt, then f*ck them and the GD horse they rode in on. Average student debt nationwide right now is $37K.

I'm retired but I say this bluntly and men who know would agree. When I did work, you couldn't carry my tool bag for a day boy. Your remark about laziness is just as valid and informed as the rest of the fake world you imagine. I'll not address such ignorant assumptions from any more fools as there are too many here for any one man.

All that and are still a communist. Who'd a thunk it.[eyeroll] (Hint; your story of life does not match up with your communist tendencies.) (I call then tendencies, as of yet, you have not been able to enact them. Thank the Lord.)

Respectfully you do not know that which you speak of. I raised a child and paid for her undergraduate degree. She sir then spent three years as a wildfire fighter out west and then paid to get her master's in catastrophe management. Before she was given a full ride scholarship, her only debt that which was the first year of graduate study was over $100,000.00. So you'll have to excuse me if I save a little of that Fuc them for your myopic and ignorant take of what students today face from profit driven academia. Basketball and football are not the only things about college money has Fuc'd up.

A 100K for a Master degree????? First Year???? Only the first year???? What a fool you are and your and maybe worse... Should have entertained a degree in economics as I am not sure that can be recouped in that field until nearing retirement. How foolish..

I won't go into my credentials but suffice it to say I am debt free and not yet retired (I am college educated if it matters) My children are college educated too and debt free AND in the medical field......just trying to save. i guess your ilk need my ilk to pay for your ill-gotten education.. .What complete and utter fools...

Your post belies your arrogant ignorance. She has already retired her debt. It is so amazing how people here assume if they "talk" with someone on this board who they disagree with, they must be talking to unsuccessful and foolish people. Those ignorant assumptions are repeated over and over here by people who simply cannot listen or acknowledge people without judgement, judgement which more times than not is poor and inaccurate.

We make our own luck in life. REPEAT, we choose our own destiny.

I earned my BA the hard way. No handouts. After leaving UK, I attended other colleges and universities during my 20-year military career. The time came when a bachelors was required for career progression.

I borrowed against our credit card, continued working full time and chose a less prestigious university (Southwest Texas State rather than University of Texas) to complete my bachelors at 40 years old. Later, I decided on using my GI Bill for grad school. Because of health issues, I dropped out 6 hours shy of obtaining my masters.

That's the beauty of this country, Levi. It's called choice. Be prepared to pay for your choices.

And if one of your socialist swine candidates are elected, Levi, and forgives student loans, then guess what? I want my share of the pie, too.

Understand, Levi?
