5. Why do these people begrudge anybody except the rich having anything?

Why are they so evil? I worked 50+ years to have Social Security and Medicare when I retired. I was promised that and I earned it. I held up my end of the bargain. Why do they want to take it away from me and all the other seniors? It's not right.

And don't they dare blame the $40-trillion+ deficit on programs like Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security instead of their own gross incompetence and wastefulness which is the the true cause of the deficit. Reflecting pool? DJT's name on the Kennedy Center? Bulldozing the White House to have a ballroom and a bunker? UFC event on the front lawn? Building an Arc de Triomphe? Needless war in Iran? Not to mention their irrational and rabid insistence that millionaires, billionaires and corporations not pay their fair share of taxes. Hell, not even their fair share, they want them to pay absolutely nothing so the hoi polloi can hurry up and die and stop being a drain on society.

GTFO with that stupid shit.
