Looking at the Big Beautiful Bill its hard not to feel disgusted

I can be convinced we need to cut entitlements; we are too low trust of a country and too broke to be generous 

But taking away entitlements and reducing poor peoples income while increasing the deficit and increasing the income of the wealthy? 

What is the pro case for this?
Are we assuming trickle down?

They’ve given up on PR. Nobody really out there talking benefits for voters.

Seems like they are just doing what they want for their frens and donors and assume elections no longer matter.

Moderate-to-severe symptoms.

I imagine it’s hard to get NYers to believe in all the “boogeymen” being thrown at them right now “California” “no more bodegas” “antis…” when there are actual masked boogeymen roaming the streets in unmarked cars.

My hypothesis is that people are tired of pols that just roll over (like current Mayor.) People want a fighter. You aren't going to get anyone to believe in your pet boogeyman (socialism! terrorists! California!) when there are actual masked boogeyman in unmarked vans kidnapping people off of the street. If you want to get back to politics as usual, start there.
