Summary
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are falsely claiming that tens of millions of dead people collect Social Security to justify cutting “waste” and “fraud.”
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick echoed this, calling Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid “wrong” while supporting Musk’s plan to slash $1 trillion in spending.
Despite Trump’s public assurances, House Republicans’ budget proposals include deep cuts to these programs while prioritizing massive tax breaks for the wealthy.
Experts note improper Social Security payments are minimal, contradicting Musk’s claims.
Remember the Great Depression? This guy doesnt.
They are about to gut the USPS. The ramifications to the economy will be astronomical.
Small businesses exist because of it. So along, and thanks for the fish, I guess?
The govt is in the process of deporting 18 million illegal workers, that’s gonna drive inflation through the roof.
Then Trump will order the Fed Reserve to lower interest rates (like Erdogan did in Turkey). Inflation will go nuts.
Wild times ahead.
I got this cadence inside of me that says “go to your capital”
And whether thats the state or nation I dont care.
If everyone followed that cadence, we could fix this.
But but the Boomers kept telling us Trump would never go after Medicare!
The boomers also said that they need the Affordable Care Act, but that they don’t support Obamacare, so…
The Boomers all have lead poisoning and the entire group should be declared mentally unfit for any sort of office, public or private.
This entire endeavor, basically the work they’ve been doing for the last century, is to undo the entirety of the new deal. We didn’t lock them up and execute them after the business plot like we should have. Just a bunch of robber barons trying to take us back to the Gilded Age.
This time we should televise it.
So I’m going to get a refund plus interest for everything I’ve paid into the system, right?
I’m thinking Libertarians will be celebrating until they find out the answer is no.
Helping Americans in their time of need is wrong!.. We should be trying to find ways to pay more for healthcare and give up our houses to those who can work and give money to Elon.
When I was 20, I also didn’t comprehend that you could have incomplete data so assumed the real world was wrong.
Imagine dealing with data tracking hundreds of millions of people across multiple generations starting from before the time of computers and having to deal with the reality of missing or lost data/documentation. We can’t confirm your birthdate because that hospital burned down 80 years ago? FRAUD. /s
