Great! Now let’s see all those Hollywood Libs put their money where their mouths are. If they’re so concerned about the “downtrodden” let them pony up the bucks to provide free medical care, housing, etc.

“Governor plans to completely eliminate welfare for families

Also known to folks in states like Alaska as living within your means.
