Schatz:
The drumbeat below all of this has to be, not just that prices aren’t going down, but specifically that the policy of the Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans is to rip regular people off.
They’re transferring wealth from regular working people, the elderly, students, the disabled, from Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, Social Security—all of that.
They’re cutting all those programs, cutting all those benefits, and taking the money saved to shove it to the wealthiest corporations and the wealthiest individuals that have ever walked this planet.
On some level, we want to keep it extremely simple: They’re ripping you off.
We have to make it clear that this is all about the corruption feeding the Billionaire Boys Club that Trump so desperately needs to be a part of.
