But that doesn't excuse billions and billions in spending when inflation is already a major issue.
So not as 'absurd' as you think it is. Though not surprising that you fail to see that. Gotta keep spinning.  |
If you don't like what they're spending money on, then criticize that. If you don't like them spending more on the military, dental care, infrastructure or whatever they've earmarked that money for, then say it. Talking about "non-COVID supports" is about as vague and useless an argument I can imagine. And it also makes COVID spending to be some sort of sacred cow, while criticizing spending that will probably turn out to be much more useful.
