Burgerlander opinions are generally bad. It doesn't matter how unpopular he is, people will still vote for that garbage

Downsizing the federal government

I agree as long as they're talking about the military and intelligence agencies and absolutely nothing else

[–] Coolkidbozzy@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Of course but the average american is talking about cuts to healthcare, education, housing, interior, etc

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 23 points 2 days ago

Disagreed. The average american has no clue what they're talking about and just vaguely believes that the Federal government is this big, vague entity that shreds away their "tax dollars." This is evidenced by the fact they get always get upset when "downsizing the federal government" inevitably means cuts to the social programs they were benefitting from. They believe this at the time of answering the question, at least, and it would take them way more time thinking it through before they realize how things fit together.
