$659.9 million "burden" is less than one percent of the overall expense, which stands at 77.3 billion.

Illegal immigrants, who make up about three to four percent of the Florida population, make up less than one percent of the health care cost burden.

Clearly, the way to reduce health care costs in Florida is to bring in more Illegals and deport the Citizens.

"The central American political question of out time is how do we respond to a genuine madman who is President of the United States?"

Let him cook.
--Republicans

Now that you barrel bombed the messenger, did you want to explain why America is making friends with Putin and breaking up with our allies?

"Canada's been ripping us off"

Explain why Trump allowed Canada to rip us off from 2017 to 2021.

Also, name the things Trump allowed Canada to steal from us.

Again, you are an example of why test grades are decreasing.

Pick a test, any test.
Most liberals here will out-perform you.
I guarantee I will.

---- Veterans!

They should have died in uniform.

That would have been a less wasteful use of taxpayer dollars, if the Veterans had been Killed In Action.

"You know what the clinical research coordinator does? It acts like it needs to coordinate the people that actually do the research. So why not keep the researchers who actually do the work and get rid of the waste that gets in the way of them doing it."

You have never done any research in your life and you never will.

You have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.

"Dems failed every which way to prevent Trump from running and getting elected."

What exactly were Democrats supposed to do to keep Republicans from joining the cult?

"So the real change voters ran to a psychopathic russian asset."

Well they're definitely getting real change now.

It's a shame they aren't smart enough to look before they leap.

There's only 2600 employees at the Department of Education? (I read the article the peak was 4100.)

"She said it was the department's "final mission" to eliminate bureaucratic bloat and turn over the agency's authority to states.""

What dies that even mean, because education is already controlled by the States, and that's why education is worse in poor Red states, and poor Red states like it that way.

Democrats are generally quite obliging when it comes to giving Republicans enough rope to hang the poor, who tend to lean Republican.

"The important part is to see yourself realistically."

You see yourself as a Gay Man, yet you've only had sex with one person this century and she's a Woman.

Realistic?

Remember when Bush invaded Iraq, strengthening Iran?

Remember when Bush II invaded Iraq, strengthening Iran?

"Finding workable solutions isn't easy."

Fortunately for Trump, imposing unworkable anti free trade tariffs, because he wrote such a bad trade deal in his first term, is child's play.

"which never seems to serve a purpose other than to brag about the size of your endowment."

Quick, what's the monthly interest income on $14.8 billion?

I guess that income serves no purpose!

"Trump is trying something different...policies that (hopefully) will lead to long-term gains and will likely come with short-term consequences."

What specific policies are you referring to here?

What policies give hope for long-term gain?

Who was stupid enough to anticipate savings?

Also, Republicans have already stated that the purpose of these cuts is not to reduce the debt, but to pay for tax cuts for the rich.

Republicans sold the terrorist Iranian Ayatollah billions of dollars in American made weapons in the 80s.

Republicans should never, ever be trusted in matters of foreign policy -- especially when it comes to Iran.

Continuing the research would be an appropriate use of taxpayer money too, if you believe in the value of the research.

"Wasn't Reagan supply side economics? Thats what this is."

Yeah! Trump is increasing the supply of... checks headlines... unemployed government workers.

"For decades, politicians have sacrificed the future for short-term gain."

Whereas Trump is sacrificing the future for long-term loss.

Genius!

"But I do see what he's trying to do (I think)."

Please tell us what he is trying to do!
Please.

It's only a transitory boycott.
--Republicans

"Eggs and gasoline are trending down in price, so there's that."

The inflation was transitory, so there's that.

Funny how siding with Putin makes the world think you must be Putin's little bitch.
