Not only is this tone deaf and putting blame on citizens for government shortfall. I'll tell you something I was charged more rent than my older siblings who was earning more money for a long time before it came out. I started working at 16. Handed up always til some one tried to kill me. #cutoff

Politicians literally have a career from throwing sharp communication across the floor at each other to "get things done" allegedly. However a keen minded civilian with an obvious humanitarian compassion focused mindset is put under high levels of scrutiny and is treated as a threat. Okay.
