You still up for a 'no welfare' state?
All of those things are not alike. People pay their entire working lives for S.S. The politicians then steal it but that is another topic.

Steal it? No people keep voting for politicians that support a global police agenda that involves the US footing most of the bill. People keep voting for politicians that punt issues such as how to fund state and city pensions, Medicare, and infrastructure (among others).

And?

And where are all the viable immigration bills of the last the 16 years from republicans...

Republican Party keeps proving that any idiot can tell you what's wrong. Waiting for actual solutions to immigration and healthcare since they feel sooo strongly about it.

Kasich was of the group that stole it to pretend they balanced the budget.

Has their been any to steal lately with the actions you note wasting so much? No.

False.

At least $2 Trillion
went towards buying GSE-issued MBS so that millions of people would NOT be turned out of their places to live. Look at the Federal Reserve's H.4.1s from 2008 to now.

Rick Santelli even warned about this... "Moral hazard."

Millions I say, I say millions. It didn't happen. Yes the moral hazard was real here. It's why Wall Street hasn't learned anything.

Obama wanted more children for the American taxpayer to support but the court stopped him. Good, I'm already tapped out supporting the children of all ages that we already have to support.
