Republican Voters Get Screwed The Most From GOP’s New Budget Bill

Republicans in the House of Representatives passed their budget resolution this week, and it is going to destroy the working class in America. And in a bit of sad irony, the people that are getting screwed the most by it are those living in Red States. The bill extends tax cuts for the wealthy (while adding a few new mechanisms to save the top 1% even more money,) while raising taxes on working class people to pay for the cuts. It also includes billions in cuts to social safety net programs. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this monstrosity of a bill.

The top 1% are popping the champagne courts this week, folks, because Republicans in the House of Representatives have passed their budget resolution. That of course extends the 2017 tax cuts for the wealthy Elite, while also paying for those tax cuts by raising taxes on the bottom. 95% of income earners, according to an analysis, this budget bill passed by the Republicans in the house. That is facing a very tough road in the Senate luckily. But yes, it extends the tax cuts so the wealthy elite will pay less. However, it is estimated that the average working class family could pay as much as $1,600 per year extra in taxes.

So the working class is paying more. This was a tax increase bill for the majority of the country. That is what you need to be taking away from this. If you are an average ordinary Trump Republican voter driving around with that Trump MAGA flag on the back of your pickup truck, Republicans just voted to raise your taxes. That's what happened. And that's just the tip of the iceberg, right? That's just, you know, the meat of it. But we also have the side dishes to get through as well, and those side dishes. The other cuts Republicans are calling for in this budget disproportionately affect. Guess who? That's right. Republicans, the very people that put these idiots in power in Washington DC are the ones who will be suffering the most from these very policies because they're calling for $880 billion in cuts to programs like the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program, snap, or food stamps, if you will.

And Medicaid cuts to Medicaid, by the way, among Trump supporters are opposed by 71% of Trump voters. They don't want this and they're about to get screwed so hard that they don't even see it coming. The states that are going to be most affected by these cuts, all red states, here they are, Louisiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, West Virginia, and Arkansas. Those states will be the hardest hit when those two programs, SNAP and Medicaid get cut by $880 billion over the next few years. All of them solid red states, right? Like we're not even talking about questionable. Maybe it's a swing state. These are die hard Republican voters who have not voted for anyone with a D next to their name, some of them for their entire lives. And the very

People that you keep putting your trust in because they tell you to worry about transgender people, not tax issues. They are screwing you out of thousands of dollars a year. They're screwing you out of your healthcare and they just voted to make you go hungry and to starve your children and know that is not an overstatement. That is what they did to you. Not for you, but to you while they distracted you over here with the L-G-B-T-Q community and DEI and bad books. We don't want your children reading and critical race theory while you were paying attention to that, they were robbing you blind. How much more are you Republican voters going to take? These are people that you elect every two years, every four years, or every six years who do nothing but screw you over every chance they get, they intentionally screw you over. It's not even like it's accidental. They're doing it on purpose because they hate you.
