On Wednesday, President Trump floated the idea of using 20% of the money the DOGE slashes from corrupt, wasteful government agencies to issue payments back to the taxpayer whose hard-earned money has been spent on outlandish causes.
According to the calculations, if the DOGE recovers the $2 trillion it’s projected to recover, taxpaying households could receive $5,000 in the form of a tax rebate.
The idea has been cheered by some and ruthlessly attacked by others. Naysayers argue such payments will only fuel inflation, which the DOGE cuts are aimed at reducing. The money, they argue, should be put toward lowering our national debt. Proponents, on the other hand, contend that taxpayers deserve their money back after a radical leftist administration wasted it.
