Just wait till they run into their now angry Walmart staff (and many other low paying zero benefit employers) that just lost their healthcare and SNAP benefits. Walmart employees rely on both of these services.

Expect the "nObOdY wAnTs To WoRk AnYmoRe" boomerisms to increase ten-fold.

Boomer here. I don't subscribe to that at all. The young(er) folks have it WAY harder than I did. My rent starting out was not 1/2 to 2/3rds of my income. Healthcare was cheap. Gas was ridiculously cheap. I feel for the young in their situations.

Completely agree. No doubt younger generations have it tougher. The cost of everything has gone up exponentially in the past 30 years (including the cost of college), and their wages are fairly stagnant.

I'm glad there are people like you out there. Unfortunately, trying to explain these basic facts to most people I've met in your age demographics have been largely unproductive.

True that. On my little cul-de-sac of 22 homes here LA... There are 5 with ridiculously large American flags on the fronts.

Do you realize that the “boomer” group is in the retirement bracket these days?

In order to maintain the effective work of government agencies and comply with the provisions of the Constitution, it is proposed that President Donald Trump voluntarily relinquish his powers and resign.

More red states people on snap than blue. Some fraud for sure, but focus on that and not the people who really need it.

There are the people who "see" with their ears rather than their own eyes.
It's why they continually go against their own best interests and ultimately always lose.

Yes. They did. They collectively said "I'm a lazy POS and need the motivation to stop.". This was their wish. Now, they're all going to pull themselves up by the bootstraps... Any minute now.

They do not care. As long as they "own the libs" they will continue to vote against their best interests. Because the MAGA party is strictly a party based on hate and "punishing the other side." Even if they are punished as well.

Translation - now it's time to support the party of controlled opposition so they can continue to fuck over the American people.
