Can’t they borrow their way out of debt and then spend until they’re rich? The left tells us this is how the economy works.

If they’re bailed out, they’ll be ‘charging’ the next day.

Puerto Rico has the highest percentage of ‘disabled’ people - - that’s code for eternal welfare with no pesky social workers...

Oh and yeah, these types are destroying the program for people who really are disabled.
