The US sold 1,000 Gold Card Visas worth $5M each in a single day.

Lol at the short sightedness of these Trump dikkslurpers. The things that Trump is doing is not going to help Joe Q Public. He's basically allowing rich investors to buy up American real estate and essentially sit on it because of it will appreciate in value and they can eat off the tax abatements and that money will go to into Trump's pockets since there is no real transparency when it comes to our nations financials.

I'm Independent.

I'm not MAGA, but MAHA is good look.

I'm also not a DNC Cult Member, but I support environmental policy and non- infused DEI programs

Which means I have the ability to call terrible policy bullshiit (the DOGE sledgehammer) and acknowledge if a policy is innovative and/or could be effective as a solution (gold card)

Do you have a better idea to get rid of $36.4 trillion in national debt? ...... half of it generated this century....meaning 24 years of Dubya, BHO, Cheeto, and Joe are responsible for half of national debt from 250 years of American existence.

I'm not saying a gold card program couldn't be abused, which should be checked, but do you have a better dea to deal with $36.4 trillion in debt which just keeps going up every year??

Hell I don't.

5 billion dollars is a drop in a bucket compared to the actual budget amount.

And now housing and land is gonna be bought up by a bunch of foreign fukkers with no regards for the middle and lower class.

There is absolutely no way you’re this fukking stupid my guy.

They’ve been doing that since before you were born brother.

Don’t need a 5 million dollar gold card for that.

 

[keond]

Where does the money go to?

Trumps pockets, he’s been using this country like his own ATM for years, there is zero checks and balances right now especially since his boyfriend is in charge

How about we make the top 1% pay their fair share of taxes.

But I digress.

Maybe the more important question is why would 7.5 million foreign investors pay 5 million dollars to be allowed to live and invest in the US when other countries would pay for these same investors to invest in other rising economic centers. Also what level of accountability will these people have? Do they need to generate x number of jobs? Fraud prevention initiatives?

There is no shortcut to fiscal responsibility we keep trying to look for solutions that may generate some money in the short term and create real issues long term.

You could raise taxes on the 1%, but doesn't seem to align with his getting rid of IRS stance.

I agree there are always unintended consequences to a policy like this.

Ya its a drop in the bucket so i guess fukk it and YOLO our debt.

So your assuming this will take place them taking up all the homes....or they will opening up additional businesses and hire American to do the jobs. Both can be true at the same time. Stop with the histaria. There's always going to be a down side to any policy but it doesn't make it overall bad.

This can't be hated on. 5 billion in one day is a win. Obviously the number of applicants will drastically dwindle just cause the buy in is 5million but either way this is a good thing.

What does “5 billion in a day” do to materially improve your life?

 

[Strapped]

Where does the money go to?

Worry about all the traffic cameras the states & cities are putting up for traffic violations

That's exactly what Trump believes dummy... which is why he wants to do ANOTHER massive tax cut for the wealthy

Well elaborate.

Say more than "stupid" and provide a counter .

What is your solution for $34 trillion in debt?
Why is it a $5 million gold card a good or bad idea?

Use your critical thinking skills, Trump’s tax cut bill will add an additional 8 trillion to the debt ceiling so that fugazi gold card money is not for paying down the debt.

Trump is an idiot breh, he bankrupted his casino by throwing good money at bad businesses(Trump airlines) and other dumb shyt.
