GOP Is Ready To Punish Most Americans To Subsidize The Rich

The chart above (from Politico.com) is the preliminary list of things the congressional Republicans are considering cutting. Why? So they can give massive tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires (the only people in the country that don't need government help).

Don't let the innocent sounding names fool you - these are cuts! They want to cut billions from Medicare, Medicaid,  Obamacare, assistance for the poor, climate change, student loan bailouts, and other things that currently help ordinary Americans.

If they cut all (or most) of these things, millions of Americans would be hurt. And even added to Trump's proposed tariffs (which would increase inflation), it would not be enough to offset the tax cuts they want for the rich and corporations.

Republicans like to pose as the fiscally responsible party - the party that want to lower the federal debt. But their tax cut for the rich would increase the federal national debt massively. They only oppose spending when it helps ordinary Americans. When it's a giveaway to the rich they don't mind increasing the debt.

There were voters in the last election that voted for Trump and the GOP because they thought it would be better for working people. They were fools. The Republicans (and their orange demagogue) don't care about anyone but the rich. 

The Republican Party is the party of the rich and corporations. THAT IS JUST A FACT!
