15. Killing The Economy
Tue Jan 28, 2025, 01:40 AM
Jan 2025

Large parts of the economy depend on federal monies. For example, the salaries of Doctors and Social Workers who work in a health clinic may depend on Medicaid to fund their jobs. Not only are patients harmed, Doctors, Nurses and others will not get paid.

This is one of many examples of jobs that depend upon federal money. The right wing idiots are going to pole ax the economy. Frozen salaries for Doctors, Nurses, and Social Workers means that mortgages are not paid, car payments are missed, and so on. This is going to have a ripple effect on the economy.

Expect a widespread revolt. They are not just harming the sick, the elderly, and the disabled. They are harming all of the professionals that care for all of these people. Trump and his people are out of their damned minds. They are going to kill the economy.
