Nearly a billion of the IRS stuff goes to arms and ammunition, I believe.
And everything else is just market manipulation and more inflation, that hurts nearly everyone. They're essentially paying car companies to make fewer gas-powered cars. I'd say insanity, but this is intentional, and very sane...just evil.
I love when people are like, 'oh, hahaha, look how bad capitalism is!' Bitch, when people talk about capitalism positively, it's largely shorthand for free market capitalism. Which we don't fucking have. When the government and central banks are as involved as they are, we arguably don't even have capitalism, much less a free market.
