1. They were referring to social problems
Bailing out the billionaires is different.

2. Republicons say a lot of things doesn't mean they won't
do them or that they believe what they say, it just sounds good on the news and the rubes buy it. Oldest con game out there.

5. Republicans are full of shit, basically.
They are a failed party, clinging to the last few scraps of a failed ideology. Utopianists with no utopia in sight.
