Political benefit not altruistic motivation.

Want to invent some other theory?

Here are some doozy ones, also from Republicans

When forced to admit you're full of crap, your response is "deflect, deflect, deflect!"

Too funny.

You continue to fall for the spin. It stands to reason that any cuts or changes to Medicaid will affect the lower 10 percent the most since they are the ones getting the benefit in the first place. The changes and cuts are mainly around work requirements and being in the country lawfully.

The top 10% is about 200k/yr. Is that now the definition of rich?

Do you always attempt to spin facts to meet your beliefs? Or is it that you simply don't give a hoot about the poor and are just willing to have them suffer, for the benefit of those that have it well. I mean, 200k per year is still a good income, isn't it? I make less than that and I do not mind paying taxes to help our entire nation be better as a whole. What do you make (less or more)?

I didn’t spin any facts. The facts are that the cuts and changes to Medicaid are exactly as I stated.

Yes, my family makes quite a bit more than that. We also give a lot to charity and pay a lot of taxes. We aren’t eligible for many benefits including child tax credits, the EITC, direct Roth contributions and of course we received no stimulus checks. We don’t live off of capital gains so we pay higher federal income taxes than most. We also pay higher property taxes since they are based on value.(Ridiculous). That means we contribute more to our local schools and fire departments than most. Our kids are in private school, but I can’t complain about that since people without kids also contribute.

We don’t mind paying taxes. We pay a lot, in fact, more than the average person makes. We don’t want the money being wasted and we do believe that even those on the lower end of the economic spectrum should have some skin and have to hold up their end of deal. (Work) We also don’t believe that our tax money should be going to those who are here illegally. That is not sustainable. The US can’t support everyone in the world who is downtrodden. Democrats don’t seem to understand that.

Meaning that 11 million Americans will be losing their medicaid coverage over the next few years.

All I see in this paragraph is me, me, and more me.

Nothing in life is perfect, meaning that if you look you will always find something to support your argument. Having said that, the benefits of these programs outweigh the negatives, except for those that really don't need the benefits but want MORE for themselves.

It is a very selfish approach and selfishness is not a good thing for any nation to have. Nations are the sum of all of it citizens and not the sum of just a few.
