I am a lifelong Republican. I have developed a new reason to hate getting older. It means I will have only a few more opportunities to vote against all of the elected buffoons from the top down who voted for this “Big, Beautiful Bill” that will destroy our country. The only reason for anyone to support this bill is some perceived threat to themselves. The poor will suffer, and the deficit will cause the U.S. dollar to cease being the world currency. Our nation will slide back into a master-serf nation similar to the early years of England. Shame on all of you so-called elected representatives of the people.
