I posted this earlier today in the tech lemmy instance, but, they have no sense of humor and deleted it. I’m trying here.

    Have you ever looked at US federal spending? 27% goes to healthcare, 21% goes to social security, 13% to income security, 13% to defense, then the rest is split between education, veterans benefits, transportation, and regional development/other.

    I know people like to meme the government spending, but the majority goes to healthcare, elder care, and veterans.
