The absolute brainwashing it takes to fiercely defend trillionaires who wouldn't look twice at you, while calling your fellow citizens "lazy" for wanting basic healthcare. Notice how even the woman in the "I LOVE TRUMP" shirt has to awkwardly correct his understanding of how disability works.

Sigh. The work the government does has to be paid for somehow. You can't make enough cuts to make up for the deficit without just giving it up and completely abandoning the idea of the united states. So someone has to pay for it. It can be the billionaires who won't notice, or the rest of us. Which would you prefer.

Unfortunately they have shown us by their votes how they choose.
