Hunker down and protect themselves from... Oh boy! Can't wait for Republicans next attempt to kick off riots. It's always a good sign when a government starts protecting itself from their people. /s
Maybe the latest projections to incite Americans by screwing over SNAP benefits recipients is bigger than planned.
Have you seen the medical care costs once medicare gets cut in November? That's scary...
Do you have a source to share, please?
The latest Last Week Tonight has a good primer on some of it. Medicare Advantage is what my ex sells, and they are up in arms right now that open enrollment is just dead, and the shutdown has tied their hands in many ways. Things are going to get ugly.
OK thanks.
They're going after Social Security, that's why they are hunkering down.
