The base budget for the Pentagon in 2015 was almost a trillion dollars less than what is being asked for here. Two years of this could fund the forgiveness of all student loans, the expansion of Medicare to include dental and vision and the lowering of the age of Medicare eligibility to 60.

The US is launching all the missiles and bombs at them. How do you escalate that? Nukes?

Agreed. I think it has gotten worse over time. Operating systems for consumer PCs are a mature market and they don’t really have commercial rivals. It’s Mac, Windows, or Linux and most people never really consider Linux. So, they use Windows to push their other products and not so much as a product in itself.

How can anyone upgrade to a new PC when there is no Ram or hard disks available? This is a crazy time to try to push that.

Charge higher rates for crypto and AI. No one should be hot or cold so some asshole can make more money.
