These types of cuts will decimate the economy. Do the Repugs think people take their disability check and stuff it into their mattresses? No. This is money that is spent to live, so the funds end up going to local businesses. Poor areas will become poorer. People who are barely making it will have no other choice but to help out family members who are homeless and starving.

But this, apparently, is what people voted for.
