They deeply resent any money going to other people.
We are all expendable and useless eaters.

Yes the US is the richest country in the history of the world but we
cannot afford SS, Medicare, Medicaid, eduction, healthcare, medical research, etc.
Housing and food for poor people is way too much money.
Needs to go to the filthy rich.
