    Before the 2025 cuts…

    The federal government had just recovered to the pre-Clinton levels. But trump still isn’t going to come close to the reduction in force Clinton got.

    And people still act like they don’t know why trump was giving neoliberals money for decades

    Today I learned that there is an energy grid owned by the government in the Tennessee Valley as a 1950’s New Deal utopia project thing.

      More of a New Deal “these poor, ignorant hillbillies aren’t going to and can’t afford to electrify themselves” kind of thing.

      It’s why utilities are cheap in the area.

      Can’t wait for these fuckers to see what happens when it gets fully privatized. It was already quasi-privatized but there’s tons of price controls Republicans have been itching to strip.

        Yep. And the TVA is the go-to example when folks in the region talk about eminent domain. Whole towns disappeared under dam waters.

    Okay, that’s 2023. How is it right now with the current administration who wants a ‘small government’?
