So costs over time are somehow not costs?
Does having to change your car's oil or replace brake pads / shoes, a muffler, lights, tires cost nothing? How about filling it with gas?
Does having to redo your home's roof, repaint, change your water heater, replace a furnace/boiler or A/C unit cost nothing?
Please tell me in which magical place you live!
that the jet will cost around 7.7 billion dollors. wrong, that was the PROJECTED MAINTENANCE OF 5 YRS, if it was bought

Therefore, you agree with me, therefore, I still stand by all my points... and if you actually understand the economy (which it's becoming more and more clear that Trump doesn't have a clue, Trump ain't saving any money, but he's spending it all just like we accuse Democrats of doing...
The Elon "savings" have been at best $1,000 per tax payer, but the cost of getting those savings have been over $800 per tax payer, for a net savings of only $200 per tax payer...
AND that number is going to get much much worse, as the lawsuits are far from over, and it's clear they did some illegal activities, and we haven't even gotten into the tax ramifications of losing all those employees taxes. Nor losing the IRS employee doing the audits and finding the money.
Overall, it's pretty clear that is going to lose money... and so is the big beautiful deal, as the big savings don't kick in into year three, and they usually don't ever make it to year 3 without having a new one, so that's all spending...
And the tariffs don't work like Trump thinks, he thinks other countries will pay, but it's American that pay... and they got less to pay with, as they're losing their jobs and the tariffs are raising the prices.
It's horrible from an economical standpoint, and money situation
yes, i know it will cost about 500 million, very true
