I’m one of them. Cut SSI. Cut TANF. Slash and burn HHS food stamps. Get rid of WIC. Kill SSD. Nix free school lunches. Kill a gazillion welfare programs in favor of a single program. Watch anyone that cuts a check on the first and is bankrupt by the fifth depend on family. Give me a flat tax. Maybe Friedman wasn’t bonkers.

I’d rather it happen before the riots that accompany %50 unemployment due to robo-nano-3D print-AI-globalist-whatever revolution but I’m not picky.

How disturbing is it that -conservative- economists are passing around an unemployment rate of 50+? I don’t see the family surviving that.

I am so with you! Glad to see I’m not the only conservative in the world who thinks this way. If we can’t get rid of all the billion little redundant programs outright (and let’s be honest - we can’t as things stand) then let’s at least make it way better.

Yes we wouldn’t end up any better socially, but the cost savings on all the cut programs would run into the 8 digits.
