I think we both covered different aspects of the idiotic "Starve The Beast" trope. I've discussed some of the basic "concrete" aspects (No pun intended) and you've covered some of the squishier, more human, but equally important aspects.



Neither one of us has yet touched on the Right's war on public health: one flank cutting subsidies for rural hospitals, clinics, and doctors, the other waging war on entities like Planned Parenthood which provide natal and reproductive care that social conservatives' pet projects either can't or won't supply.



These folks are getting shafted, but there don't seem to be enough folks who've wised up or who are willing to see where the BS they've bought into is leading them.
