Billionaires might suck but Medicaid/Medicare is just shy of 1.7 TRILLY
Most people, especially in Europe dont know Americas LARGEST budget expenditure is healthcare, nearly double the defense budget.

But in more ways then one the billionaires cant hold a candle to what the boomers and there kids did and are doing the fiscal health of this nation

You guys see that funny little red number all the way on the right? That scary guy is kinda new, atleast at this size. Defense has always been number 3 expenditure after healthcare and social security but now EVERY YEAR we pay more money, over a trillion dollars, on just the fucking interest to our debt

Check out the source if you like Kino numbers, all the numbers move in real time to

Illegals are ineligible for medicaid. I know you're a gullible simpleton who believes whatever Fox News tells him like a good little NPC, but it's really not the case.

Trying to play word games about illegal aliens and legal residents doesn't mean anything when you are just calling every illegal alien a 'refugee' or an 'entrants' pretending that they are here legally. Magic words don't turn border jumpers into Americans and they shouldn't be entitled to any benefits (which they are getting). I don't understand why people like you, honestly. At least fatpacks is a reverse Oracle and Johnbadman is funny.

Medicaid funds are released for otherwise unauthorized immigrants (aka illegal immigrants) for emergency procedures, and many states have pushed that definition by having illegal immigrants swamp emergency rooms for all care, emergency or routine: https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/press-...-federal-medicaid-funding-health-care-illegal

This often gets presented by media as if somehow illegals got themselves a medicaid card, but when you draw into the sources for any of those pieces (when provided), it's programs like that they're referring to.

That's an incredibly smart part of medicaid, though. As per the link in my OP (point #3), emergency medicaid spending is less than 1% of Medicaid spending. It's a literal drop in the bucket, and Medicaid is getting gutted so that billionaires can get tax cuts.

The libtard canard about how tax cuts are bad because people who don't pay taxes don't benefit is the decades-old busted rhetoric that hasn't won them a single election in history.

It's cute when people like you, who live on welfare, argue that billionaires should get tax cuts :story:

So, the champaign socialist is calling people poor. Amazing that you don't pay non capital gains taxes and thus want to spend other people's money on your pets and slaves.

Well, the majority of welfare recipients are die-hard MAGA cultists like yourself who blame all of their problems on brown people instead of the billionaires robbing them blind, so yeah, it's pretty likely

CA doesn't even hide that they give illegals medicaid, SNAP, debit cards that refill monthly, phones, somewhere to live, transportation, translators, education, drivers licenses and just about everything else whats the point of retards saying otherwise?

Just such a fucking boring reddit tier discussion at this point.

his is what they want for us, Because the UK isent a real country it dosent have a written constitution

Yeah we do.
Multiple, technically.
The 1689 Bill of Rights even inspired the American Bill of Rights.

The main issue is we have a legislature (House of Commons) with supremacy over every other body of government. It'd be like if the House of Representatives had supreme say over the entire United States instead of the rigamarole of the Senate, the President, the Supreme Court, and the House all operating in conjunction with one another. If that was the case, whoever had a majority in the House could just undo parts of the constitution, which'd probably fuck everything up?

Not to defend my country, but arrests are defined in America is actually taking people in custody, right? In the UK an "arrest" also includes merely "investigating" the matter. If you're issued a warning, a fine, told to identify yourself, told to attend the police station of your own free will, etcetera, that counts as being "arrested" in the UK. If you're told to pull over by the police and get issued a warning for speeding or unsteady driving, you've been "arrested". Yes, it's retarded. No, it doesn't mean hundreds are being thrown into prison everyday. Yes, the fact people are being warned at all is an injustice. The UK police are fond of this because it enables them to get their numbers up which justifies funding so they'll seize any chance they can get to issue a fine or pay someone a visit, it's free money.

Just a random philosophy thought here, the Civil Rights Act seems like the biggest Faustian bargain, you get one generation, maybe 2 that will fawn over you and get all sorts of unearned bennies at the cost of complete ruin after this generation passes.

Easy explanation.

As an aside: the quote by LBJ "We'll have blacks voting Democrat for the next 200 years" is an anachronism, and you know it is because it implies a politician cares about anything beyond their immediate time in office lmao.

You didn't really think it had anything to do with principle, did you?

That's just silly.
 
The Supreme Court just announced that they will hear two cases next session challenging two state's bans on troons in female sports. Keep an eye on that 41% number next summer!

You have to realize people like us who get and discuss news on one of the very very few uncensored places on the web are such a small minority that we're statistically irrelevant.

I'd say probably 60% or more of normies get their news exclusively from tik tok or Instagram and 30% might go to a mainstream news source like CNN but very very few people bother going deeper than that.

The Kiwi Times are the only source of news that I trust :semperfidelis:
