Before now, these programs didn't get cut because of the checks and balances of our government. They probably think this presidency will be like the 45th. Those protections are gone and a lot of people are going to suffer and die because of it.
Yup. We gave all the keys to the kingdom to the crazies and we're about to find out how bad of a choice that was.
And honestly, I couldn't care less how much Americans suffer now. That part of me is gone. We asked for it and now we're going to get it. Time to learn the hard way. Not that we're going to learn.
I care. I live here.
I used to. Now I realize what's coming is inevitable.
I applaud your optimism and support you in what I believe is a worthwhile, but ultimately futile endeavor. Good luck.
