The libs would find a way to tax the interest earned by a factor of 300%.

Elon is willing to buy Homeland Security bonds.

Maybe Israel could give us some of our foreign aid back.

Just to give you an idea with some math, there are about 185M American adults who do not receive Social Security (disability or old age), SNAP, nor Unemployment benefits.
$200B is what the DoD is asking for the Iran operation.
$200B ÷ 185M = $1,081 per person.
That would be every person able to buy a war bond. Current RCP polling shows a 40.8% approval for what we're doing in Iran. So take that 185M and multiply times .408 and that leaves you with 75,480,000.
$200B ÷ 75.48M = $2,649.70 per person, which is obviously not a problem for all the multi millionaires on the poli board.

They already do, to Northrup Grumman and Raytheon, among other US companies. That's where all of it goes.

There should be bonds for every program. No taxes for any program or endeavor. Just bonds. Let those who want certain programs pay for them.
War bonds.
Welfare bonds.
Medicare bonds.
Obamacare bonds.
Etc.
