Gutting Medicade is only part of the overall Welfare spending...

There was $741B spent in fiscal 2016 but that was both Welfare and Medicade combined. Well my my....Trump and his tax break for the rich club could dig a HELL of alot deeper than just gutting medicade and really dumping on welfare. As mentioned they have $741 BILLION $$$ to play with.

And then of course if they really have the balls go after social security and medicare which has DOUBLE the spending of welfare and medicade.


Oh for JOY Trump!!!!
