That’s just voluntary taxes. Which is hilarious because we all know the only people paying into that are the same crowd that bitch about taxes.
Either that or it’s just another way to bribe Trump and they have no intentions of using that money to pay off the debt.
Edit: I did the math and if every American in the entire country donated $50,000 it would still only cover less than half of the debt. At the average yearly salary it would take one person over 700,000,000 years to pay it off themselves.
My money is on the second one
I’m sure Musk and Bezos will be donating generously.
Despite the new digital payment options, donations average only about $120,000 a month. This is minuscule compared to the $88 billion in monthly interest payments alone.
Ayyy lmao
What is wrong with these people’s brains? Even if it’s just 1200 people giving like $100, they could make at least some kind of positive impact with local action instead of putting it into a government black hole.
These are Trump fans. Reality and rational don’t matter.
To be fair to the USA, Germany has been accepting donations for decades now, I believe about 1-5 million euros annually.
If they taxed the billionaires in the USA even half what they did 80 years ago (*percentage of income), this wouldn’t even be a whisper of a thing.
I imagine the German government has a bank account.
Yes, bank transfers are the norm in Europe. Government bodies rarely even offer paypal.
lol MAGA: I hate big government and taxes we should get rid of them!! Also MAGA: here government take my spare cash I’ll get food next month.
It has been for decades now. Literally nothing new except several news agencies deciding to write articles about it. This is clickbait.
