From what I gather, anything they've saved is going to tax cuts for wealthier Americans and increased military spending.

The 90% of folks at the lower end are getting tax increases, too, as of the latest plan I've seen.

How much DOGE is saving is very questionable, too. Less than 1% of the annual budget fwiu. And whether those savings are actually permanent, or whether they cost us when consequences of cuts come calling after some time.

DOGE savings is only a tiny percent of the tax cuts cost. The truth is the tax cuts are going to be paid for with debt.

Otherwise, why vote to raise the debt ceiling, right?

For reference, 90% is if you make under $250k a year
