They are cutting social programs. 
I’d rather see non discretionary spending be cut.

House Republicans just introduced the DOGE Act. The bill cuts non-military spending by $114 billion, shrinking programs for energy, climate, health, transportation, veterans, education, economy, and more.

The DOGE Act reduces Pentagon spending by $0. https://t.co/YKdm8xGDhB

Slashing education? Reduces productivity and a prepared workforce
Slashing health? Increases existing health disparities. 

I’m down with slashing. But let’s focus on the real spending issue which balloons our debts first. Which is social security and Medicare.

no i dont agree.  Our education system sucks all kinds of ass crack.  Look at the democrat inner cities and tell me things are fine.  Totally reminds me of the meme in the kitchen on fire drinking coffee.  It needs scrapped and revamped from the bottom up.
Our education system was built after the world wars where we were trying to pump out brain dead factory workers who do as they are told.
What we need is a system based on shared learning and team building.

You can’t revitalize education without funding though? Cutting funding isn’t how you do that?

show me where education funding is projected to be at zero.  I will wait for that.

In the meantime....inner city schools in philadelphia cost like 5x per school what they do in Indiana and they produce kids who cant read and write.

Bravo.   More of that please.

yes.  let me say it so you can understand....throwing good money after bad is what clucker face retards do.
It is what we have been doing for decades while the global ranking drops like a rock.
We are now at the bottom of the global ranking system.  Yet we spend more per student by a country mile.
Revamping the system will end up with an education framework that costs less.  Thus the reduction you point at wont be one.  The excess today being wasted throwing good money after bad will simply be removed

Okay I will rephrase.

You’re saying that the kids in Philadelphia cannot read even with an inflated education budget.

So reduce their education budget because they aren’t using it correctly to learn to read? 

Wouldn’t that doom them to be more illiterate? 

A fair solution would be to overhaul education, not cut funding?
