Nearly 40% of the federal contracts that President Donald Trump’s administration claims to have canceled as part of its signature cost-cutting program aren’t expected to save the government any money, the administration’s data shows.
For some reason people just took Republicans word that their issue was taxes paying for stuff.
They just don’t want the stuff, they already pay essentially nothing in taxes, but they still want to burn the government down because without a government the oligarchs control everything.
You expect vulture captialists see that? They think spending money now is a waste when they can have money now. And when it all comes crashing down? They’ll swoop in and buy up whats left.
Correct. I’m sure what they’re doing has a word, but all I can conjure with my nin-native English vocabulary is “Whatever the opposite of virtue signaling is”.
I tried to look for antonyms of Virtue, but I couldn’t a suitable one.
I think scumbag signaling is about as good as we can get. Not a true antonym, but sort of an all encompassing indicator that the sooner these people meet their personal Luigis, the better.
It’s almost as if efficiency and cost savings weren’t actually the point.
It never has been.

I mean it’s a effective way to prove that “the government is broken”…
It’s like old-school bullies on TV
Then the stereotypical bully snatches them and breaks them.
Considering Biff Tannon is president, it actually makes logical sense this is where we’re at. Depressing as fuck tho

Generally speaking, the opposite of virtue is vice.
I know, but it carries a fun connotation which makes it unsuitable in this context.

Yeah, that’s pretty much spot on.
