they’re not perfect

Band-aid on a gunshot wound, but I'm sorry its the best we could do. It's not perfect, but the other guy wants to hit you with another bullet.

So, anyway, here's another $50B bank bailout. And a $100B automotive industry rescue. And $200B for the wars overseas. And $25B for Intel to build a new foundry in Israel that makes specially designed chips to help Microsoft do weird invasive AI data-scraping more efficiently.

But sorry we can't do anything about health care or education costs. We just don't have the money, cause we're not perfect.
