    Because the Biden administration spent like drunken sailors and caused
    interest rates for borrowing to increase dramatically?? The interest on
    the national debt is close to one trillion dollars. Do the math. Just
    think what the debt would have been if Biden had been able to forgive
    the student loan debt. Biden is like a case of Herpes. You think you
    have gotten rid of it, but it keeps costing you pain and money.

    The libbys fail to understand 3 simple concepts.

    1. It takes money to make money and the savings made by DOGE will save the taxpayers
    years of wasted money over the long term.

    2. Inflation is caused, mostly, by government overspending and not much else.

    3. Just because an agencies budget is being cut, does NOT necessarily translate directly into impacting the people. Most times is useless, back office, duplicated
    services that are cut. The government is way over bloated and that translates into
    wasted money.

    The DOGEbags have not saved one penny.

    That's a lie. Inflation is caused by the Fed.

    It does when the agencies have their core functions gutted.
