Thats both true and false because
A) Our debt is HUGE. Like incomprehensibly huge. SO technically yeah he hasn't found "much" (Compared to the debt)
B) I read the other day that DOGE cuts already amount to over $500 per person (That's US people--so like 334 million x 500). SO yeah there's also that....
Not advocating refund checks, just saying our debt is so bad that they found $500 per person in waste and barely made a dent......
Also don't forget Government accounting tricks:
a 4% raise is actually a 1% cut. They have built in increases to the budget so if you don't raise the budget the required amount its a cut.....Man I wish I could budget like that.
(For those not understanding, if you make 100,000 and your boss gives you a 4% raise, you don't tell him "HEY YOU CUT MY PAY by 1%!!" but our govt does.)
