Don’t you just love how democrats are always looking out for the working men and women of this country. I guess supporting all those illegals don’t come cheap.

It's all about having the few intelligent portion of the population pick up the slack for the masses of imbeciles in this country.
It boils down to nothing more than Republicans encouraging and assisting business and working class while Democrats breast feed the indignant.

Republicans have already proven they don't know basic math which is why they passed a huge tax cut without spending cuts to accompany them.

SS and Medicare, "liberal" programs, which many retired Republicans are happy to benefit from is slowly going bankrupt. Money has to come from somewhere.

It's still not ideal. Trump was happy to continue the swamp for hedge fund managers and their carried interest loophole. Wall Street should pay the same tax rate as main Street

Don't forget that the now defunct individual mandate was one of the biggest tax increases on poor and working class individuals in history. Dems love to squeeze whatever they can out of whoever the can.

it's not a benefit. it's not an entitlement. it's a refund check on an investment that earned a terrible interest rate.

It's a ponzi scheme that Republicans are happy to continue to avoid pissing off their voters. In reality, it is slowly going bankrupt and without an increase in tax or more workers coming into this country (which Republicans are also opposed to), there won't be anything left for future generations.

Of course Trump is happy to put trillions more debt on the national credit card too on top of it

How can I not forget something that I never knew in the first place since you just came up with this one right now all by your little self? Plus, it happens to be false. Number One: The individual mandate didn't apply to low income Americans. Number Two: Working class folk have been thrown back to going to the ER for medical care thanks to the Republican manipulations which involved destroying as much of the ACA as possible and offering no plan of their own to replace it.

Putin's Mitch won't let a single piece of legislation onto the floor of the Senate. The republicans new motto is "Healthcare? Over your dead body, you'll get healthcare!" The KGOP - making social security go defunct as quickly as we can! But hey - at least the upper 1% got their tax cuts.

No problem at all when Obama added $9T to the debt, right? More than all other presidents combined.
