The government shuts down. Another spectacular MAGA failure.

False. In 11 statees and DC, they already get it, and even though it's officially state money, a portion of it comes from the Feds, and the Democrats want to maintain and expand that.
Piggheaded stubbornness is what holds your belief in these falsehoods. This is not true and has been clarified through dozens of posts. Give it a break. Don't die on the damned hill over your loss.
 
We need to end subsidies. It's not het government's job to tax us to subsidize private businesses, nor to pick winners and losers.
Which subsidy is your favorite for quick elimination? I'd be willing to wager a coffee that a fair few Democrats are also in favor of curtailing some of your picks, probably. Let's list them here and see if we agree.

All of them. Corporate subsidies, farm subsidies, and all the rest.

That's pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking. Not a practical or rational solution.

That's like tossing Trump out with his bathwater and starting over with a fresh bar of soap and a disciplined approach.

Then that might work as well... ;)

How about we start whittling on the largest three and pare down a percentage to see the fallout: energy, agriculture, and transportation. If you gut the whole hog and it turns rancid, it would be difficult to sew it back together and walk back some of the slices. Make sense?

Nothing I typed was "false."

Illegals do not get funding for healthcare, 🤡.
 
No one is trying to give illegals health insurance. It's literally not part of it.

Aren't you tired of being lied to by racist 🤡s?
No, they are not tired of that. If they were, Trump's approval rating would be about 5%.
Jesus on a cracker! Everybody's said that multiple times! :oops::devilish: NOw saY the ResT: Federal monies have controls on their use—enough with the fungible shit segue.
It's telling that they are all using the relatively obscure word "fungible", isn't it? This is obviously something some right wing pundit cooked up, and which they've all been parroting.
 
Show us the part you have an issue with. From the bill that you claim gives healthcare to illegal aliens.
They've already made it clear they know it technically doesn't say that, but that there's no way of stopping someone, somewhere from getting a helping hand. Which of course is the real reason why they're against it.

They're going to find out that the programs they think only help illegal aliens also help them and their families.
 
I'm not so sure about that. I mean, you are correct that those programs help them too, but we're talking about people who are very, very good at remaining ignorant about anything they don't want to know about.
The fact that they choose ignorance is what's frustrating.

Their children must love them. Imagine growing up with parents who could never tell when someone is lying.

And those state governments get money for it in part from DC. It's all the same account.

It's like when we tried to prohibit subsidies to Planned Parenthood from paying for abortions. Of course they paid for abortions, because it's all the same account and money is fungible.

Tell us you don't know anything about accounting without saying "I don't know anything about accounting."

Fucking stupid MAGAt (SkyBoBo) is stupid:

California is considered a "donor state," contributing about $83 billion more to the federal government than it receives in federal funding. This trend has been consistent, with California typically paying more in federal taxes than it gets back in federal spending each year.

😳

Make it (SkyBoBo’s stupid argument) make sense…

🤔

Accounting is simply lines on paper. The FACT is that money is fungible, and once it's distributed, even with restrictions, there is no way to trace where that particular dollar is going. The organizations know it. So do the accountants. My dad was an accountant. I took an accounting course.

1. California is only one of 11 states (plus DC) where illegals get benefits.
2. It does receive money from teh Feds for certain programs, regardless of how much it "contributes," which is a phony thing anyway.
3. Federal money shouldn't be going to the states at all. It should never b going to DC for them to take a chunk before they send it out again.

But the point remains, despite your unwillingness to understand it: Money that came from DC is used by the states to pay benefits to illegals, who are not supposed to receive benefits from Federal money.

SkyBoBo got REKT and is staggering around trying to formulate a cogent "refuttal" - and FAILING.

Nor is there any need to. If a share of the funding in question comes from elsewhere - and it does - then you can still say the portion that wasn't intended to go to a cause you don't like wasn't spent there. What you are really getting at - both in the case of health care for immigrants and Planned Parenthood - is that you really don't want any money at all going there. At least please be honest about that.
