Certain Things Must Be Done

Back when Joe Biden shut down the Keystone XL pipeline with the loss of 10,000 jobs, I do not recall widespread remorse in the Main Stream Media for those who lost their jobs. Those 10,000 who suddenly were in the unemployment line were supposedly there for the good of mankind as there would consequently be less fossil fuels being used.
Now the shoe is on the other foot as an executive order issued by President Donald Trump last month instructed agencies to immediately pause monetary aid being sent to foreign countries. The administration said it is eliminating more than 90% of USAID’s foreign aid contracts and $60 billion in overall U.S. assistance while thousands of USAID employees continue to clear out their workspaces.
DOGE has discovered that USAID was sending billions of dollars to other countries to promote DEI initiatives, and was funding groups tied to terrorism among other things.
Now, do not get me wrong as I do feel bad for those USAID individuals who are doing to lose their jobs. They are losing their jobs, because the U.S. is slowly going bankrupt with the huge and increasing debt. At present the interest on this debt is more than the U.S. spends every year on the military. Everyone with any common sense knew that this debt was unsustainable, but no one was willing to attempt any solution … until President Trump allied with Elon Musk to form DOGE.
Certainly there will be pain for those individuals who are going to lose their jobs, but unfortunately certain things must be done.
