REFUND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!! While the left was committing waste, fraud and abuse the American people were struggling to put food on the table, heat/lights in our homes, and gas in our cars. We the people feel it would only be fair to give us a refund so we can have an opportunity to rise above our struggles. It’s a disgusting shame the pain they have inflicted on us over these past years. I don’t know a single person that is not feeling the sting of this economy. I don’t know how much we should be refunded but I can tell from all the gross money that has been found, it would be enough to help us straighten our paths. I hope you take this request into serious consideration. We the people appreciate EVERYTHING that the Trump administration is doing and for uncovering all that has been STOLEN FROM US. Sunlight is truly the best disinfectant.
I strongly agree this would help all Americans.
The money is already spent and wasted, and we are 36 trillion dollars in debt, so there is no money to give back.
I understand. Just feels really rotten how we were all done.
Listen I voted for Trump, and I’m a Republican, but it’s not just the left, it’s all of them. There’s no way that this happened on this scale, just because of democrat behavior.
I agree w you. I was just basing it off of the side that’s fighting the hardest to keep DOGE out of the books and the type of payments. But it’s absolutely both sides and it’s shameful.
I believe our policies are similar so I’ll add mine here.
The sentiment is that the US Government continues to tax US taxpayers and increase those taxes (OASD went up to 6.2%). The government needs to reduce the tax load, get right with how they spend our money (with our consent), and look at ways of eliminating debt for the American people. While we don’t have a ‘slush fund’ for paying reparations, a gross abuse of taxpayer money needs to be made right. Waste, abuse, and neglect have been the marching cry of the government (Dems and Reps). We should not shoulder this burden any longer.
I agree, but proposing a non-workable idea does not help. You want changes, call your elected officials and complain, and offer solutions. Start by going back to the 2019 budget, that will save trillions. Change the way we do budgets. No one understands trillion of dollars. Make it simple. My idea is never use dollars for budgets, use percentages. Using the taxes collected last year, or maybe the year before as a base line, Defense gets 20%, Health and Human Services get 25%, Interior get 5%, Rainy Day fund maybe 3%, etc., and at the end of the day it always must add up to 100%. People can under stand that.
Elon posted this yesterday. It shows the budget increase from 2019 to 2024. . . . Hint - it is 2.305 trillion dollars, or a 51.8% increase (Nominal), or 1.416 trillion dollars or 26.5% (Real) in 5 years.
In economics, nominal value refers to value measured in terms of absolute money amounts, whereas real value is considered and measured against the actual goods or services for which it can be exchanged at a given time. Real value takes into account inflation and the value of an asset in relation to its purchasing power.
“Spent and wasted” Ok, but the money’s gotta be somewhere… Should we check the billionares?
Every political person who benefited off the money they took should have to pay a percentage back.
Maybe since the money has already been spent by the criminals, they should have all of their assets seized, liquidated and given back to the taxpayers!
Where would the money for the refund come from? The government has already spent the money. If they were to give us a refund for all the waste, it would again be coming out of our tax dollars.
I disagree on a refund. Do the investigations, follow the money trail, and recover the money with whatever method it takes. If that includes seizing bank accounts and putting people in jail/prison so be it. Then put it back in the American tax coffers paying off debt as can be done. Then put safe guards in place to make sure it can’t be done again. That should bring a soft reset of the economy lowering interest rates.
There is a thing called Civil Forfeiture. Any bad agents who profited by robbing the American people should have the entirety of their assets seized and returned to the people. How much money would each American get if Bill Gates entire wealth was evenly distributed to all citizens above 18 y.o.? And that’s just one.
The other source can come from the new Tariffs being implemented. If Doge can reduce the cost of gov’t by 20-50%/year, that is an immediate “tax return” to the people, and then the extra tariff money can go towards a “refund” or towards civil projects that improve every American life.
As for the debt, imho, I believe there will be a nullifiying of sorts (like the Roman empire used to do) of nearly all international debt because it is the result of usury by corrupted international banks. It may even be sparked by the new team responsible for disseminating all older secret files to the American people. If those files show that “economic hitman”, and similar, really did bankrupt and blackmail entire nations, then those nations would be owed reparations and that would come from the banks, not any nation. And who knows how much money is in their coffers!? We can even talk about the stolen wealth within the Vatican, but I’m beginning to ramble 
Or…? We charge them with treason under the Constitution and their sworn oaths, take every single asset they own, and return their entire wealth to the American people.
If I steal $100 from you, get caught and convicted; would it make sense if my punishment was to pay you a fine of $50?? If that was the case, I would do that again a 100 times over.
Anything at this point in time would help
It should start with refunding the fraudulent Covid SBA loans to small business owners.
These loans were pushed under duress to the most economically vulnerable of the middle class, small business owners.
Start with the businesses with 1-25 employees and completely forgive the loans plus refund any payments already made.
Then progress to businesses with 26-50 employees.
This would be a great starting point.
Have it come out of Chuck Shumer’s, Maxine Waters, AOC’s and Pocohantas’s millions. To name just a few.
The calls for compensation are quite American, and quite justified at this time…
