There's nothing wrong with it. Our current deficit is increasing something like 1 trillion every 3 months. Getting creative to reduce government spending seems necessary at this point.

All the hysteria over this is just partisan politics as usual.

Doge disrupts everything except for spending: https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2025/02/12/e...

stop falling for branding and actually concentrate on the numbers: spending is going up, not down, and only touching entitlement programs, the military, or offsetting monetary loosening (via debt interest) will change that.
