And some native born Texans do understand that when Republicans give major tax cuts which mostly benefits the wealthiest in the country, they pay for them by cutting funds for programs like medicare and medicaid, which will impact low and middle class income takers more than the bread crumbs they were tossed with a tax cut. Take this example that Paul Ryan proudly retweeted, of a secretary who was happy that she got.... wait for it... a $1.50 weekly increase in take-home pay.

Whenever you cut taxes, wealthiest will always benefit because they pay the most taxes by far. It isn't even close. Second, there is a reason why thousands of people a DAY move from California to Texas. It is cheaper and gives you a lot of opportunities to grow yourself and take care of yourself. There is no state taxes or high cost of living like California unless you choose to live in a rich area. Which gives us opportunities to grow and save up for rainy days. Lastly, social programs should be removed. It is obvious whether or not we tax a lot or not, there isn't enough money to keep programs like social security alive. Medicare has also artificially made health care more expensive than it needs to be. If you notice, any sector that the government puts a lot of regulations on gets a lot more expensive. Look how expensive education and health care gotten when the government got their big noses in it. When we let the private sector take over, things become a lot cheaper and consumers have more choices. Look how over the years entertainment industry and cars have gotten cheaper for the average consumer when the government doesn't have nearly as many regulations and more importantly isn't FORCED.
