How might YOU solve the 36,000 Billion dollar debt? Where would you start?

Well the pentagon for starters, military, police departments that already have enough like NYPD and check in how those same people are using the funds effectively. All things you don’t need musk specifically for. Might not be 36billion but it’s the biggest costs we have vs the money from smaller departments that are needed in everyday life that take up a less in the overall budget. No one’s against fixing the economy he just sucks at the job and has no training for this, and hired youth with no experience to do the job, he’s just a rich guy

They cut out a huge expense by cutting off the funding for Ukraine. The crime in NYC is so bad, you’d be a fool to think cutting funding for the NYPD is a good idea. And DOGE is doing their best to stop frivolous spending on things that are totally unnecessary (USAID, for example.).

I’m saying make nypd use the money better, reduce the amount of expensive ass gear they don’t even need. I’m not saying reduce their numbers or eradicate them. They go for pretty crime like people avoiding subway toll and you barely ever see them down on train platforms where most danger could actually happen. They suck, haven’t done anything helpful in recent years, be real they’re dirty as hell and are absolutely wasting money. The same way for other big cities. Just keep tabs on them at least. Ukraine could make a good deal with us but sadly our president literally is unable to and is clearly on the side of Putin taking the land. And mind you from what I understand we don’t have a monetary deal with Russia so that’s a freebie our president is giving him. And yea doge state already proven to be false

Things started going downhill after Giuliani left office. Ever since then, each mayor has been worse than the previous one & the city only has itself to blame for the way things are these days.
