      $20 billion

      The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates that it would cost $20 billion to end homelessness.

      You can easily get the rest from just pulling from the military or even better seizing the obscene wealth of the billionaire class and fix this overnight but noooooooooo billion dollar vanity projects.

        At least my billion dollar vanity project, building Castle Von ThunderCastle, would provide countless jobs and a place to live for all those willing to join my ruthless terrorist organization

        Even ending homelessness for 1/20 people who are homeless would’ve been objectively better as a campaign strategy too

        Off-topic, but that number is one of the things that made/makes me absolutely hate the billionaires in this world. People like Bezos, Buffett, or Musk could end homelessness or world hunger tomorrow while not even really noticing the hit to their wealth, but they all choose instead to spend it on destroying the planet instead.

          Homelessness and world hunger is the source of their power, they use it as leverage to force other people to enact their will. Ending hunger will diminish their power, and so they will never do it.

    Trump gets 500 million, keeps half of it personally and wins the election.

    Kamala gets three times that much, loses, and didn’t even make her self unbelievably rich in the process.

    Who’s really the dumb one.

    what, they don’t have any math magicians at the NYT.

    you spend 1.5 billion in 15 weeks by spending 100 million every week for 15 weeks.

    I’m assuming they did something even less intelligent or beneficial than buying every American with a car a gallon of gasoline and a warm can of Pepsi.

      And probably earn more votes. A lot more votes. No campaigning or anything, just funneling all the campaign funds into something that actually helps people. Social media would have done all the work. Sooner or later someone will remember the “bread” part of “bread and circuses” and they will rule completely unchecked. It will probably be terrible.

        I feel like we’re so far past bread it would be viewed on an equal level as Elon giving a million to a random person for voting, a candidate that used their campaign funds to help people would probably get investigated and somehow disqualified from running.

          No, I think we will see it in our lifetimes. Not in any actually benevolent way, just a brief respite from the worst this world has to offer in exchange for the power to to literally anything.

      In that same article some DNC spokesperson was like “we are separate from her campaign and we’re very healthy financially now!”

      So much proof they don’t care about the election as much as their funding.

      Also apparently her campaign is still getting donations… imagine the libs donating to her still.
