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?

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.
