They are hard working, entrepreneurial, educated, industrious, creative, valuable to the society. They are nice folks, respectable, like us. And they are mostly white. People who make less are much more likely to be just employees. There are plenty of them, no need to help them. They can easily be replaced by automation. And there are plenty more of them overseas who can either be brought here to work for peanuts, their jobs can be exported and done overseas, or the goods and services they produce can be imported. They really don't matter. Those on Medicaid or SNAP are just parasites and are better off dead. This law will either give them the kick in the ass they need to get off their butt and get a job, or they will just fade away once and for all. Any questions?

Any questions?

Hey, at least the math works, right? Hopefully this abomination is torn up in the Senate as expected. $800 billion in cuts to Medicaid. $300 billion in cuts to SNAP. $1.1 trillion in tax cuts to people making over $500k/year.
