WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said he plans to take up healthcare, infrastructure and welfare reform issues soon after Republicans’ tax overhaul is finalized, which the party has pledged to complete by the end of the year.

“We’ll be submitting plans on healthcare, plans on infrastructure and plans on welfare reform, which is desperately needed in this country, soon after taxes,” he told reporters at the White House ahead of a meeting with his Cabinet secretaries.

1. There's gonna be so many people croaking from welfare and health care reforms

we won't need any more infrastructure

[RKP5637]

2. His plan, culling the herd. Killing off as many as possible. n/t

3. Welfare. He is bringing that word back.

[RKP5637]

11. And he will try to equate it with social security and medicare. n/t

[Alice11111]

14. disability, kids' insurance, poor people, milk programs...

All the people who Mooch off the Mnuchins
...or is it the other way around.

[RKP5637]

15. We used to be a country that tried to work together and help people. Now the US has

turned into a country wherein the majority of the citizens are used and many don't even get it.

[Alice11111]

16. They don't get it, and they double down, like they have too

much to lose (investments gone bad, sunken losses), to change in the face of facts. It would be a rejection of their culture, manliness, family values, etc. I think the Country Music artists may have a lot of power to lead us out of this, but noone wants to be the Dixie Chicks.

17. In the sixties music led the way for many things. Something needs to unite the people into

"really seeing" what is going on! Country Music would be a great start!

[Alice11111]

18. Several have come out for gun control after LV.

I'm not a big country music fan, but that is what most Repubs listen to.

As one of my friends said, who never listens to country, when we were watching the big Dem celebrity concert the night before the election, they need Garth Brooks.

[SammyWinstonJack]

20. Welfare, he means Social Security benefits.

[Wellstone ruled]

4. Right on schedule.

And for those whom stayed home last year,they are the ones who will get clobbered by the GOP.

[Bleacher Creature]

5. Don't hold your breath! NT

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

6. Meaning

He wants to sell our freeways, bridges and other infrastructure to private entities who will charge us to use them.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

7. +1,000

They (the rich) won't be happy until they can charge us for the very air we breathe.

9. Like this

[RKP5637]

12. Exactly!!! And most in the US will become members of a penniless society as we

descend into some type of dystopia. ... but I still think a lot of Americans are still clueless as to what is going on.

8. "welfare reform"

There is no "welfare" left. That pretty much went away in the '90s. I expect they really mean now getting rid of TANF and SNAP. The FARM bill is up for decimation at the end of September 2018.

[Freethinker65]

10. Privatize everything. Skim off the top (profits, CEO salaries)for himself, buddies, and corporations

Not much left for the public. There will be less money from less taxes paid, middle class will not be able to make up the difference, so more cuts will be essential.

Unaffordable healthcare, privatized infrastructure, corporate welfare.

[RKP5637]

13. And so ended America. And Trump will feel proud. And the Trumpets will say, WTF happened. n/t

[Alice11111]

19. They will blame it on Obama, Bill and Hillary.
