5. All of those signs I see along the rural highways

about Democrats being takers and tax paying Magats subsidizing them.

The truth of the matter is that more Magats are on Obamacare, more Magats are on Medicaid, more Magats are on SNAP. The "handouts" aren't going to the big cities, they are going to rural America. My use of the word "handouts" isn't what I would call them, it's what Magats call them. I know hard working people who can't afford to buy healthcare without a subsidy, if you want to do away subsidies then start paying people more. The real handouts go to billionaires.
