    National defense, tell me about those drones

    How is defunding the federal government supposed to help us stop the drones again?

    Fight federal crimes, yes, fund the fbi…

    While the FBI is corrupt, they do also fight and stop legitimate crimes and criminals.

    Disband the irs and end the income tax please

    I want to replace the income tax with a national sales tax on digital purchases, personally, but that necessitates an IRL to collect that money still.

    legislate what

    Laws, mostly

    Negotiate with foreign governments. Ohh yes, to pay for drinking club dates that end in bombing kids, great, love it

    Again, how is defunding the government supposed to make any of that better?

    Set economic policies. MORE INFLATION.

    Or less, depending on what the federal government chooses to do with that power. In any case, will shutting down the government stop inflation?

    See this is what I’m talking about. Almost none of what you’re upset about is actually improved by a government shutdown. At best, it’s just paused, and will pick back up again once the government funding resumes.
