You want waste? Here's waste, and DOGE should get right on it:

MONDAY, March 10, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is preparing to study whether vaccines are linked to autism -- despite overwhelming scientific evidence showing no connection.

Don't forget that they're already terminating studies involving vaccine hesitancy.

I'm sure you'll all shocked that Wormhead - like everyone else in the Cabinet - might have lied during confirmation hearings. (In related news, sun rises in the East, water is wet and dog bites man.)

How much money did the terrible Americans give your country during the 1990s to help prevent total collapse?

I could have sworn the USSR did collapse.

And Russia did default in 1998, so I guess my answer to your question would be . . . not enough?

You had Yeltsin as a drunk lapdog for a decade. That's priceless. And according to the Clinton administration, things were going super, so why would they need help?

Look on the bright side: Soon a share of Apple stock will be the same as the price of eggs.
