"[We are considering] a new concept where we give 20% of the DOGE savings to American citizens and 20% goes to paying down debt."

We’ve had UBI for decades now.
It goes to Democratic client groups who work on things like “environmental justice,” “health equity” or “scientists” who are researching gender identity practices” on grants.

“WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said that he likes the idea of giving some of the savings from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency back to U.S. citizens as a kind of dividend.
He said at an investment conference in Miami on Wednesday that the administration is considering a concept in which 20% of the savings produced by DOGE’s cost-cutting efforts goes to American citizens and another 20% goes to paying down the national debt.
Trump also said the potential for dividend payments would incentivize people to report wasteful spending. …”
“In a recent social media exchange, Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency, hinted at the possibility of issuing $5,000 checks to American taxpayers—a concept dubbed the ‘DOGE Dividend.’ This proposal, originating from investment firm CEO and DOGE adviser James Fishback, suggests allocating 20% of DOGE’s projected savings and distributing it to taxpaying households. Let’s assess what we know now. …”
Imagine being a taxpayer and getting a check for $5,000 from DOGE.
Instead of squandering your money on things like USAID or endless wars in Ukraine, it could be sent to you directly like the stimulus checks and people who don’t pay taxes wouldn’t qualify for it.

Rather than giving it to faggots, dykes, Mexicans, and Blacks, we should be giving money to married families, Americans, and Whites. They are owed lots of money. But, right now, Trump’s idea is eliminate most of the government, let oligarchs get accumulated more wealth, in return for giving up on deporting all the illegals, and giving any savings to only people who paid taxes (especially oligarchs).
Hunter, the way this works is I.R.S. collects income tax, social security, medicaid and Medicare taxes. How in the world are these taxes going to be collected without the I.R.S.? Will Tyson’s chicken properly account and pay for the taxes of its illegal alien workers that Trump has given up on rounding up? How much money will people get from savings in this one time DOGE dividen deal?
“Instead of squandering your money on things like USAID or endless wars in Ukraine, it could be sent to you directly like the stimulus checks and people who don’t pay taxes wouldn’t qualify for it.”
Most people don’t pay income tax. Look at your last income tax filing. Find the part that says your taxable income. Multiply that by 20%. Thats the total amount of money Trump SAYS he will send your ONE time, in return for obliterating most of the US government. In fact, multiply that taxable income amount by .03% and that is the amount you paid for the Ukrainian War and USAID. It might not even pay for the postage.

Imagine being renowned freedom fighter and getting paid for decades long cancelling, suffering and low life quality.
In my country , renowned freedom fighter gets 600 usd in month. Lot of them are dead like Waffen SS voluteers or forest brothers. Others are alive like Soviet political prisoners.
But message should be clear. People who risked with their live or welfare will be not forgotten.
When you do not honor your previous freedom fighters, there be no next ones.
There should be political pressure that everybody who risked in C,ville , 6 january or elsewhere must get lifetime pensions to send message into future.
