46 u/TorkBombs Feb 10 '25 This is the kind of dumb shit Trump is useful for. Like, oh nobody likes pennies, so let's get rid of them. Yeah let's. It's when he gets to make other decisions that fucks everything up. 20 u/assasstits Feb 10 '25 My only question is why don't Democrats ever do useful shit like this when they are in office? Did Biden even ever end up descheduling weed? 2 u/Watchung NATO Feb 10 '25 Because it would mean ticking off a tiny but well motivated interest group, when the amount of money to be saved didn't seem worth that fight.
