repub requirements for work target low income people over 50...most who already work.

[Ray From Cleveland]

My question.

That's troubling because the cost of proGfessional child care and elder care, as well as the care for the disabled, is very high in the U.S.

Let's say a percentage are taking care of elderly or infirmed relatives. They get a small bit of food benefit help. They have to go to work instead leaving the elderly and infirmed where? Going into nursing homes covered by Medicaid? Will this lower the debt or actually raise it?

You are using extremes to try and make a point. From experience most only bring in X amount of money a month to stay on these programs. They have the option to work more hours and have a larger income but that would mean surrendering their free handouts.

Nope. the repubs want the rich to pay less than you and I for taxes. The disparity between the rich and the poor in this country has never been larger. That is the way repubs planned it.

"The Rich" pay virtually "all" of the taxes.
One would have to be absolutely retarded to believe that poor people paid.

I'm using the example from the article.

Are you fucking kidding? I have been saying this for as long as we have been on forums together, and now all of a sudden you give a shit about the debt?

Wow, you're actually Joe Biden, aren't you? You're delusional

GOP work requirements target people 50+ â but many already work

Many Americans in their early 50s take care of older loved ones.

The repubs want to reduce expenditures by targeting poor people....again. But they want to make the Tax Cut for the Rich permanent.

Biden voted for this when Clinton was in office, Simp.

And now the Republicans passed a bill to raise it under Tater.

Why are Dimwingers driving the country off a cliff?

 

[BULLDOG]

Republicans don't want to give a damn thing to the rich - just want to let them keep the money that they earned and/or accumulated.

Bullshit. the rich enjoy billions in grants and tax abatements. That leaves working people to pay for everything.

If they already work, then they aren't getting welfare for not working. I mean duh ...

He shouldn't have done that, I'm glad we're starting to address it now

The rich can afford to pay fancy lawyers who can figure out how to avoid taxes

The repubs know that. They don't care if kids go hungry.

Do you have any clue how much of the total tax burden the top 1% pays? Top 10%?

Nothing illegal about avoiding taxes.

Another manifestation of the reprehensible right; reckless and irresponsible, Republicans are incapable of sound governance.

Mrs Jones, have you told mommy that these big words are not comprehensible to the reprehensible and irresponsible manifestation of the congregation that gets palpitations, otherwise known as the ignoramous left??

 

[jbrownson0831]

They have a sick obsession with the rich. If it were left to repubs, there would be no SS and no Medicare or Medicaid. Their mantra is...."We got it...You Don't...So Sorry."

Well we don't like you Dims, who make up all the top one percenters.

You wackos are the rich goofus.

Don't care. Do you know the percentage those people pay? It's much lower than the percentage working people pay.

 

[jbrownson0831]

So desantis is announcing his candidacy tomorrow with billionaire, Musk. That is exactly who the repubs worship.

We thought DeSantis was your buddy.

 

[jbrownson0831]

But but but,,,,a Dem is in the WH....so it is now a crisis.

It is for those who actually work for a living jimboliar.

The 'rich' are the working people fool.
