Guns and Butter Rush....you TNC folk are fixated on guns while the left is fixated on domestic concerns (butter).
Given that the government blows through cash I would rather the cash go to food stamps, Medicaid and services for those barely scraping by rather than spend on wars and weapons which do not protect or benefit the US in any fashion.
Why are you so miffed that some person living in poverty gets a food benefit, would you prefer to just ignore that the majority of the public is living in a poor financial condition and blame them for their condition?
I will choose butter every single time even though the program need to be RUN better, corporate sleazebags have wrecked a decent program but I will still support that over guns and wars.

@Rush51 "restricting eligibility in social programs"
Well being of population is among the reasons for government to exist. Making benefits harder to obtain just make poor people worse off. Myth is that restricting eligibility is incentive for lazy recipients to work more to earn more income. Most poor recipients are employed but they are either too old, young or disabled to be working in high paying jobs.

Am truly amazed at how many people are so heartless and whine about helping people Sure there are people that game the system, but there are people that do that it in all financial classes, not just poor people. Hell we got a criminal con artist right now in the white house who is gaming the system for his own wealth, but magas dont say a word.
When i see or hear about somebody getting financial help, with housing, money, medical, food etc etc, i never get mad and jealous of them. Instead i say to myself, am happy and thankful i am not in the same position in life these people are.
And for all you magas that hate helping people, you might want to understand this fact
CORPORATE WELFARE BEATS SOCIAL WELFARE EVERY YEAR.
I dont see any maga running their mouths off saying the corporate CEOS that get corporate handouts should be putting in some work every week for the tax dollars they get and reason is their traps are closed, is because they are ALL HYPOCRITES
Keep thinking its the poor screwing the country when its actually all those sick rich pedos. Nice to know magas love helping those people with our tax dollars

MSNBC warns that republicans are conducting the biggest campaign to dismantle black and latino political representation in government since Jim Crow. For example, partisan state gerrymandering. Supreme court flawed decision to weaken voting rights act is based on lie that US laws are neutral in race discrimination and systemic racism does not exist.

Canadian travel to US is down 42% according to analysis of cell phone data from University of Toronto. Only 3 of 267 US cities show an increase in Canadian visitors. Boycott is due to Trump threats costing US economy billions of dollars. Of course, lying Trump brags about having a great relation with every country.

German chancellor Merz does not recommend his children work or go to school in the US because of bad social climate. US labor participation rate sank to 62% the lowest since 2021. Record number of Americans are leaving the US and renouncing their citizenship. Cato institute reports that Trump administration cuts to legal immigration are twice as large as for cuts to illegal immigration at border.

Polls show most Americans disapprove of Trump handling of US economy. According to Fortune, top foreign holders of US debt may soon dump treasury bonds to increase borrowing costs for Americans. Recently, treasury department sold 30-year bonds at 5% yield for the first time since 2007.

Trump wreck US economy by imposing bad policies such as unnecessary tax cuts, tariffs and Iran war. A big lie is that tax cuts are supposed to boost economic growth and employment. No coincidence that 10 of 11 last US recessions have happened under republican presidents.

Kaiser family foundation warns that loss of Obamacare subsidies could result in millions of Americans losing healthcare insurance. Republican plan is based on false belief that consumers seeking cheaper insurance would drive down costs of healthcare system. Instead the sick who can't afford deductibles are more likely to suffer by waiting longer to seek healthcare. Sickest patients are harder and more expensive to cure. With worse healthcare and more medical debt, the worst may be yet to come.

Unlike other presidents, reckless Trump proposes giving surplus plutonium from dismantling nuclear weapons to commercial companies to produce nuclear energy. But security risk of terrorists stealing or buying plutonium to develop nuclear weapon. Besides, nuclear energy is more expensive than renewables which are the fastest growing sources of electricity in the world.

US travel association criticizes Homeland security secretary Mullins proposal to cut customs processing at airports of sanctuary cities. This would wreck havoc on international travel and tourism nationwide. In sanctuary cities, nothing stops federal agents from enforcing immigration laws and courts have ruled that states have no legal obligation to assist federal agents.

Scientists warn that new Trump rule could endanger scientific research in the US. One of the reasons US has been a science superpower is the merit system of giving grants based on assessment by other scientists. But putting political hacks with no expertise in charge would be stupid. For example, controversial appointment of non-doctor Kennedy as healthcare secretary.

New York times report on Trump administration plan to cut housing assistance. Shift to short term housing is based on stereotype that homelessness is caused by drug addiction and mental illness. But for the majority of people, homelessness is caused by poverty and high housing costs. No evidence that less assistance improves prospect of self sufficiency. Despite election promise to fix housing crisis, new policy could worsen homelessness for thousands of Americans.

23 states sue Trump administration plan to weaponize US postal service by denying delivery of mail ballots for states that do not provide voters data to federal government. However US constitution says states run elections. Not the federal government. Also there is no evidence of widespread voting fraud by mail. Making voting harder to discourage eligible voters is among reasons why US has a failing democracy.

Trump did not protect social security as promised. Instead social security administration reports acceleration of insolvency crisis. US social safety net is harmed by Trump policies such as tax cuts and reduced immigration. If social security is under funded in 2032, average monthly cut is estimated to be $500.

Trump threatens to withdraw US from free trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. But Tax foundation warns that failure to renew USMCA would increase tax burden, shrink GDP and cost average US household $300 in 2027. Eliminating 95,000 full time jobs.
