The unique brutality of the US capitalist class bred a labor movement that has often limited itself to being a private insurance provider.

$975 billion in income tax breaks for the 1%, the largest cut to food stamps in history, a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid, and many more acts of class warfare.
Keep in mind that the cuts to Medicaid donβt go into effect until late 2026 conveniently after the midterm elections. Do not be fooled. Vote these ghouls out. Show up and VOTE in the midterms.
