Big Beautiful Bill Keeps Falling Apart, Will Pass Anyway - Lemmy.World

We’re fucked. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, medical research, public education. It’s all not going to exist.
I don’t even understand why the boomers want this shit gone — so many of them rely on Medicare and SSI entirely. They all claim that because they ‘paid into it their whole lives’ that they are due a disbursement. But like usual, boomers are concerned about theirs; none of us who have been working for almost 20 years at this point will receive the same benefit.
They’re idiots. Oh, and they’ve swallowed the propaganda whole.

They genuinely believe the US is filled with millions of evil, lazy people on welfare who don’t work and play videogames all day and collect $50,000/year in benefits…

Meanwhile you have billionaires like Elon Musk who pays people to play videogames all day for him, and they don’t bat a fucking eyelash… ^(I mean, by no means the worst thing musk does, but you get my point)^

It’s so insanely removed from reality
