    How did we let ourselves be ruled by morons?

    Kyle Hansen, a 41-year-old IT professional in Wisconsin, said the measure would bring “absolutely beautiful, critical, important, and responsible fiscal changes that our overly bloated bureaucracy of a government is way overdue for, and in desperate need of”.

    “The disgusting career politicians have been extremely fiscally irresponsible for many decades, and all the US citizens will pay the price for it. This needed to be addressed a long time ago, and finally there is a politician willing to be ridiculed for doing what is needed. It may not be what everyone thinks will be nice, fuzzy, and warm feeling, but it is the responsible thing to do,” he continued.

    According to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the bill would increase the deficit by $3.3tn through 2034.

    In New York, 60-year-old grandmother Dee said: “I believe this will greatly help heavily taxed middle class and lower class and lift us out of the debt we have been inundated with by the Biden administration!”

    “This bill is a no-brainer! Americans first!” she added.

      Speaking the loudest and bullying people who are different from you make you look like a strong man to a large portion of morons in this country. They still live in high school in their own minds.
