(18,333 posts)..... the ill,.. the infirm,... the disabled,... those prone to needing medical attention,.. the hungry
.. the unhoused,... the mentally ill,..
the addicted,... and those not gainfully employed are all too costly and burdensome to those seeking upward mobility. These people must be made to fend for themselves and not feel entitled to access to any government programs of last resort.
This is the MAGA Bootstrap Program of Self Sufficiency. The strong survive and flourish ... the weak not so much.

Apr 16
Autogenocide exposes how states drive populations to destroy themselves through poisoned environments, collapsing healthcare, misinformation & engineered despair.
It's mass death by design & by the outright neglect of society.
AKA social murder.

(20,879 posts)DOGE cuts to foreign aid and domestic programs will lead to many deaths. Lawrence has been covering the effects of the foreign cuts, perhaps because he has his own KIND fund helping to provide some aid to Africa. Even beyond the deliberate cuts there will likely be chaos leading to death simply as a result of their incompetence and indifference.

I find this very offensive for obvious reasons but also because my brother
and I grew up on food stamps and are now both very successful. But, he
now agrees with his wife.
