Oh no, instead we focus on giving more to those who have no need of it, at the expense of those on fixed incomes.
But, then, hasn't that been the plan all along?

Cutting the size of government IS a way to generate more revenue. Cutting taxes IS how to make more money. Simply hacking off many of these institutions IS serious waste cutting. Nobody's portraying Granny as a freeloader. The portrayal is of conservatives throwing her over a cliff.
