I remind myself of Caskur back when she would chat with her husband and post it on Flame Boards. Haha!

Nice try @Lily but here is the truth! In fiscal year 2024, the U.S. spent approximately $4.9 trillion on entitlement programs, which accounted for about 71% of total federal spending of $6.9 trillion. Entitlement spending includes major programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, which are funded through mandatory spending that continues automatically unless Congress changes the underlying law.

All we do is support deadbeats!!!

 

[Lily]

Yes, entitlement programs are mostly for seniors. You want to throw seniors out in the cold?

Incorrect

 

[Lily]

Correct.

Google and yoo will see

Nope

In fiscal year 2024, SNAP accounted for approximately 1.5% of the total federal budget, costing around $100.3 billion. This percentage has been relatively small, hovering between 1% and 2% of total federal spending over the past four decades.

Medicaid and Medicare are big ones but there are many!

 

[Weeg]

End Snap!!

The demographic group that benefits the most from entitlement programs in aggregate is older adults (age 65+), primarily through the large-scale, near-universal programs of Social Security and Medicare

Social Insurance Programs (Non-means-tested): These are the largest programs in terms of spending and participation and were designed to provide universal coverage for specific life events, primarily retirement and disability. Primary Beneficiaries: Older Adults. Adults 65 and older are nearly three times as likely as younger adults to have received an entitlement benefit over their lives, with nearly 9 in 10 older adults receiving Social Security and Medicare benefits. These programs do not have income eligibility requirements, and almost all working Americans contribute to them through payroll taxes during their careers. Means-Tested Programs (Income-based): These programs (like Medicaid,

Means-Tested Programs (Income-based): These programs (like Medicaid, SNAP, and TANF) are targeted at individuals and families with low incomes or specific hardships.

 

[Lily]

Primary Beneficiaries: Low-income individuals and families, including children and people with disabilities. Most benefits from programs like SNAP go to households with children, elderly persons, or people with disabilities. A larger share of Black and Hispanic individuals are enrolled in means-tested programs like Medicaid compared to White individuals, reflecting different economic hardship levels.

Leftists always say "it's just a tiny part of the budget" when the fact is brought up that illegal alien criminals suck like bloated leechews from our social safety net program that NONE of them paid into.

 

[Weeg]

72% of all money gets spent on entitlements! That’s too much!

Two varieties of forced socialism. Two miracle drugs the population became dependent and hooked on.

 

[Reggie_Essent]

There is a lot of fraud and chiseling going on with SNAP. I see people all the time at the store loading up on groceries and paying with an EBT card ... and then climbing into a brand new SUV in the parking lot.

 

[Weeg]

Let their families take care of them!

 

[Weeg]

Funny thing about people who defend other people on all the entitlement programs is the fact that they were pieces of shit when they were young. They’re just old pieces of shit now.

 

[Admin.]

Ragetard stfu you complete moron.

 

[Lily]

I don't see that Reggie. Are you there to buy the card for pennies on the dollar?
