Letter to the Editor of the Clermont Sun,
The Big Beautiful Bill, if passed, will carry out the largest upward transfer of wealth in American history which will be paired with huge cuts to food assistance and health insurance for low-income Americans.
Estimates of deficit increases range from $1.2T to $3.8T; where is the fiscal conservatism the party of Lincoln bragged about? The members of the Republican majority – here’s looking at you, David Taylor – are behaving not like traditional conservatives but more like revolutionaries who, having seized power, believe they must smash up the old order as quickly as possible before the country recognizes what is happening; is this what you voted for?
“The ‘America First’ agenda is wrapped up in this one big beautiful bill,” Speaker Johnson said with the enthusiasm of a door-to-door salesman. Who knows, maybe Johnson has come to believe his own hype.
Now 215 Republican members of the House, including our representative, have put their name on this one big, ugly payout to billionaires.
