How do you fix these inefficiencies? Every cut is jobs lost and of course ppl will fight to keep them

Don't underfund. "Starve the beast" is a successful GOP strategy over the last 40 years where public programs (except military) are undermined, making them appear useless which encourages even more cuts. People buy it because they can only see what's directly in front of them

And yet, when things are outsourced to private companies, they inexplicably become more expensive. (well, the explanation is simple: government spending is already pretty lean to begin with, but private companies MUST MAKE A PROFIT which the government doesn't )

The claim that government spending is actually more efficient than private sector spending is quite an extraordinary one

Hmm. Let's accept for a moment the (dubious) argument that government spending is inherently inefficient and that that only private citizens are capable of spending wisely. Why not a universal basic income? No spending decisions at all - perfect for the small government fans, no?

It's the idea that that taxing the rich will make the poor the medium class. But actually its taxing the rich and making the medium class richer, the richer class lower and the poorest stay at the same, except with less innovation at the top.

I honestly have a question, why is income inequality bad? Like I know it sounds bad, but why should Elon Musk or Bill Gates and your income be equal? I think we should aggressively fight poverty, but poverty and income inequality aren't the same thing.
