      While I agree the US does a fraction of what they could: Social Security

      Medicare

      Medicaid

      WIC

      HUD

      ESG

      COC

      Department of Education

      The list goes on and on. If you think there aren’t a LOT of social programs that they can cut, you are in for a very, very rough time.

        I sympathize with the commentor who you are responding to although I know my present crap life could always get worse and probably will. Just doesn’t feel like much to lose

        Buddy, I’m being sarcastic here. I KNOW they’re gonna destroy tons of public services like that. The cruelty is the point.
