super important ( to the wealthy, lol ) to the American way of life.
As we inch ever closer to a dystopian society............... maybe Kristi Noem can
pitch a Hunger Games reality TV show ( for American citizens, not for immigrants ), I'm sure Trump would be on board.

"under a law already on the books called PAYGO (Pay-As-You-Go), when Congress passes something that increases the deficit, they have to make up for it by automatically cutting spending somewhere else."
"The CBO has crunched the numbers and said that unless Congress waives PAYGO, Medicare will get hit with a 4% cut every year starting in 2026, totaling about $500 billion over the next 10 years."
"Those cuts won’t come from beneficiaries’ checks—but they’ll hit doctors, hospitals, Medicare Advantage plans, and drug coverage providers. And when providers get paid less, many will limit the number of Medicare patients they take, reduce services, or stop accepting Medicare altogether. So while the cuts aren’t coming directly out of people’s pockets, they will reduce access to care for seniors and people with disabilities."
