A few things about cutting SS and Medicare

51. Was pondering a similar theme yesterday. You see the full picture and why this bluster won't ever happen.

Oh, they'll trim around the edges but the rest is just posturing. The fact is, the true rulers of America, the monied interests, are so heavily invested in the status quo, they cannot allow much if any of that to happen. They would lose fortunes. The same applies to the tariff bullshit and rounding up millions of undocumented workers. The US meat industry would collapse if that happened.

The thing about Hitler was he was good for the German monied interests. He spent all the capital Germany could raise and steal on military expansion and German industrialists made a fortune off of it. Our own version of Hitler wants to take money OUT of their pockets. They won't let that happen lightly. They will fight back.

The irony I thought about yesterday....the monied interests we all love to beat on, and rightfully so, may be the ones that save American governmental structures and indirectly, democracy itself. Simply because they're so heavily invested in it.
