Part 2/9:
O’Neill highlights a growing sentiment among Americans who feel jaded and frustrated with government spending practices. He emphasizes that recent revelations about funding decisions made by agencies such as USAID—like financing "transgender opera" and questionable projects in foreign nations—have left people astonished. The depth of the expenditures appears to exceed what many citizens had previously imagined.
Reflecting this concern, O’Neill argues that the public is beginning to realize the extent of the problem, moving beyond the acceptance of government waste as a norm. The severity of these revelations seems to have reached a critical point where Americans are demanding answers and accountability.
