“make the technology available to developing nations around the world…”
–including the United States that just had it’s president “cancel” the NOAA and our ability to predict, respond and plan for weather events as a nation.

It’s almost like the US is in a massive debt and cant afford its own existence.

National debt doesn’t work like consumer debt bud. Learn some economics. Nor is the trump admin actually using it to pay down the debt.
Anyway, defunding the NOAA to pay off the national debt is like skipping a coffee, once, to pay down a mortgage on a house.

That’s the damning thing: Any savings are going towards tax cuts for the already-wealthy…
…and then going out and buying an expensive car.

Some people when faced with an overly simple explanation doubt their own understanding and try to see why experts and academics say otherwise.
Others assume they know better than the experts and everyone is an idiot but them.
Maybe you know a lot about a topic, and see others choose one of those paths when questioning your area of expertise.
Which kind of person do you want to be?

None of the above.
I dont know shit other than the US having debt. You guys know more than me about macro economy.

I’ll acknowledge my comment was rude, you are expressing humility now that wasn’t present in your original assertive message. You hopefully have a better understanding now.
This misinformation about national debt that you unintentionally spread is used by conservatives around the world to deny people services
