It’s not just a spending problem. There are also problems with the tax code itself, loopholes the rich can use to reduce their tax contributions, military overspending, IRS audits not being done on the richest who are overestimating their debt and underestimate their assets, and so many other problems that are not specific to whatever president we currently have.

A lot of wrongness in this. There are no loopholes. The system is designed the way it is. Don’t ever think it was a mistake.

We don’t overspend on the military. We are slightly above our NATO commitment.

IRS audits the wealthy, guess what, when you hire a lawyer and account to do your taxes they are often accurate.
