#LetThemDie: ‘Heartless’ Trump Blasted For Meals On Wheels Cuts

I found it astounding that no one complaining about this will spare a dollar of their own money to help them

Well you know socialists. They are all about spending other peoples money.

Works great till the other people run out of money taking care of those that won't take care of themselves.

Trump's budget includes cuts to poverty programs overseas. I'm ok with that. However, all of these cuts are (in theory) to handle business at home.

I pay taxes. I have no problem doing so providing the money is going where it needs to go. Now either it is more cost effect to keep these people in their own homes and have meals delivered or it's more cost effect to move them into nursing homes run by the state where profit is not the motive.
 
Explain to me why is it my place to pay for other people's food,clothing, housing. Just because you want to give them free stuff doesn't mean everyone fills the need to giveaway freely

I don't need to. This is an adult topic. You are not a child. It's pretty basic shit. It's ok for you not to want to pay taxes but these are the current issues.These are problems that need solutions and I do not feel compelled to argue with you and guess whatever internal thoughts you need to have to understand the problem. I should have stated this much nicer but some of us work.

My money is already there in the form of federal taxes.

In other words you are upset because someone else wont do it for you.

The attitude is telling though. No need to give charity because the government does it for me. Ebenezer scrooge felt the same way at one point
 
Where's the nobility in cutting such funding? Does it make America great again?

Yes it does; cutting funding to use the money for better things does make America great again.
Better than feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, clothing the naked, researching cures for diseases? What possibly could be greater than those things?

So who is cutting funding for research? I see how we are "feeding the hungry" quite a bit when I go grocery shopping. Yes, we do feed the hungry, and then "the hungry" load the belt with cigarettes, alcohol, flowers, greeting cards, huge bags of dog food, cat food and cat litter. They and their four kids wheel the shopping cart to their late model SUV and load the ten bags inside.
Trump's budget cuts grants for medical research.

And if all decisions were made based on anecdotal evidence rather than researched facts, we would still be using rum as an anesthetic.

Really? Because I read the OP and even the Communist News Network and I can't find anything on research cuts.

Here's what Trump's budget proposes to cut - CNNPolitics.com

Oh and I would hardly call "real life" experiences anecdotal. I see what goes on at work. I see what goes on at the grocery store. I see what goes on right here in my neighborhood. So don't give me this anecdotal nonsense.
Poor people have too much. Rich people don't have enough. It's more important to cut funding for the poor, the elderly, the homeless. It is equally important to grant tax cuts to the wealthy.

And thus we can say with confidence that America is a Christian nation, so while we're at it we can discriminate against homosexuals and repress transgender people because we're such sterling Christians.

And thus it is shown how Conservatives can talk out of both sides of our mouths at once and feel pretty damn good about it.
 
So which is worse (or funnier)?

1. Trumptards having to pretend they hate Meals on Wheels, or,

2. Trumptards finally openly admitting that they do in fact hate Meals on Wheels?

False dichotomy. No says they hate or anyone else needs to hate meals on wheels or any charity. Only that the federal government is a government of limited jurisdiction. Designed specifically that way so that they have limited function in our lives. At no point has the federal government been given authority to give tax money to charity.

Charitable giving is a power reserved to the people and to some degree the states who have general governing powers.

Hate doesn't enter the equation.
 
We're like 20 trillion in debt....desperate times calls for desperate measures

Desperate measures?? We are spending $3 million every time Trump goes for his golf weekends, and that is ok. But spend $3 million providing food and a visit for our elderly and we need to cut that because desparate times require desperate measures??

To cut such programs while spending huge amounts of money for frivolous nonsense is indefensible.

I'm with you. I don't want to bankroll someone life for them.

Its time for people to take care of themselves.

Get a damned job. Get two jobs and pay you're own way.

The taxpayers are sick and tired of being forced to support these freeloaders.

There is no way to defend cutting the federal grants to Meals on Wheels while spending the same money every time Trump goes to Florida golfing.

$3 million can either provide the continued federal support of a national program for our seniors and shut-ins, or it can pay for 1 weekend of golf for Trump.

$3 million in federal money to provide a couple of meals a week to the elderly. Or $3 million to pay for Trump to go to Florida for the weekend. Which do you think the tax payers should pick up the tab for?

You are demanding the 88-year-old mother of a soldier killed fighting for his country go get a job in her wheelchair and eyes that barely see shadows and ears that barely hear. It's OK, horrible humans like you have a right to live in America.

The elderly are more than able to take care of themselves and Trump as POTUS as every other POTUS before him is transported at taxpayer expense.

Its the State taxpayers that should be taking care of their elderly if they need taking care of and not the Federal Govt fed taxes.

If that 88 year old needs taking care of then her family or the State Govt. should be taking care of her. Not the Fed.

If they allow a moron like you to live here then they sure as shit will let a producer like me live here also.

Get over it sparky. LOL

The states ARE paying for most of it. And transporting the POTUS for federal business is no problem. But $3 million every time he goes to play golf? Not the same thing.

Meals on Wheels is a practical solution to a problem. It saves huge amounts of taxpayer funds by allowing seniors and the disabled to live at home for a small amount of funding instead of being institutionalized at a huge amount of funding. If you want this service to become a state service instead of a federal one, get the state programs started before you cut off the current program.

The morons, you dunce, are the people like you who make emotional opinions based o hate and a general need to feel superior to others. You are mean spirited and hateful. You are a weakling that needs to control and hurt others to feel secure and whole.

Yeah! Those freeloading elderly folks gotta do for themselves! Same for the sick, the infirmed and the children living in poverty! Poor people have too much, while the rich DESERVE a break on their taxes! It's the Christian thing to do!

Or we could pay neither
