You don't want to live in a society where an increasingly large percentage of the population have nothing to lose.

Regardless of whether it benefits our industry or socioeconomic status, it'd be incredibly shortsighted to just do all of that at the expense of the lower classes.

I don’t have to be in support of something just because it benefits me

I agree but I think the huge cuts across public research & development basically hurt everybody in the long term.

Even if you're right, it's only true in the short term. Long term, everyone benefits from a sustainable country, and trillions of new debt isn't heading in that direction.

I have to say that you sound very biased in the way you're talking about the bill. If a primary goal of this administration is to cut and make government more efficient, this bill is about as big of a failure as one could conceive. Any reasonable person would have to admit that.

I'm fine admitting that I would benefit greatly from this bill. I also hope to heaven it doesn't pass because an additional trillion dollars to suit me sounds asinine. I don't need help.

>Every Congress increases the debt,

And yet only one party campaigns on fiscal responsibility, debt concerns, and reduced spending

> This bill is goated for upper middle class and tech and defense sector

No, it's not, because giving its authors any power or wins or ability to execute on their agenda is disastrous for nearly everyone, including tech and the middle class. The only people that its illegal acts are good for is a tiny minority of crooks, fascists, and oligarchs.

Given the firehose of illegal stuff they are doing that is impossible to push back on, it is utterly imperative to push back on every little thing that is possible to push back on, and to hold consent hostage to an end to the former.

You're letting them burn your house down because they promised you a bottle of whiskey.
