The people give the government about $5 Trillion to run the government. The Govt spends around $7 Trillion...we can't continue down that path...

We need indivual funding bills. No more omnibus bills. Way too much gets hidden.

Musk wants to run America like a free market business. Only hire competent/qualified people, accountability, etc. Unfortunately, that means all the incompetent people have no where to go. Liberals/socialists/democrats at least know its best to keep those people busy with govt jobs.

The main goal of this bill ... as well as the gutting of government departments ... is to somehow justify the extension of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.

Too much spending added to deficit and cuts to Medicaid will hurt Missouri

I am hopeful the Senate will fine tune the Bill. I do feel with maintaining the tax cuts growth will help with the deficit. I agree with EM that if we do not address it then no one will have Security in the future.

Because Elon is always wrong according to MSM. So he is obviously wrong about this.

I think Musk is a con-man, a billionaire drug addicted con-man, but at least he's not in the parade of 'yes men' that follow Trump around. Musk disagreed publicly, gotta give the guy credit for that.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!
