| 31. you are no judge of who is or isn't anything- |
|
you have a right to your opinion, but that is all it is.
Changes to SS Medicare and Medicaid may mean that the bottom line isn't the same- That doesn't automatically mean that the programs are going to be less effective.
This is a hell of a lot of projection as presented.
Mr. Pitt, hasn't offered ANY facts to back up these fears. If indeed there ARE substantial cuts to these programs, I'll join in the voices who cry "NO" but I'm not about to jump on the "he sucks" bandwagon-
That doesn't make me an "apologist" it makes me someone who has learned that not everything that gets spread around in the political gossip world is true, and I'd prefer not be part of spreading shit before it's time.
