Because these republicunt motherfuckers only have one sheet in their play book.

Quote:Trump adviser eyes entitlement cuts to plug US budget gaps

Quote:A top economic adviser to President Donald Trump said on Monday he expects U.S. budget deficits of about 4 percent to 5 percent of the country’s economic output for the next one to two years, adding that there would likely be an effort in 2019 to cut spending on entitlement programs.

Huge tax breaks to their criminal business asshole buddies and then claim they have to balance the fucking budget on the backs of the poor and middle classes.  Nice work, Trumptards.  You fucked yourselves along with everyone else.

I'm fine with cutting of SSI and medicare to the wealthy. In 2010, 47 million collected benefits while making over 100K per year. I've seen another estimate of 1.4 billion per year in SSI benefits to millionaires.

You don't seriously think that is what the republicunts have in mind, do you?

Maybe by giving a little more tax cuts to the rich while simultaneous raiding monies for entitlements, we can both grow the economy (for the rich) and pay for it (on the backs of the poor)? Sounds like a republican win/win to me.
