If you live in a red state, one of the big political talking points is how the Dems want the gov't to be involved cradle-to-grave, explode the deficit, & hate fiscal responsibility.
It's one of the biggest talking points.
It's also one of the most easily refuted.

Housing First Programs = Saving 31K/ every 2 years unhoused person
SNAP = 6$ in economic return for every 1$ invested
Free School Breakfast/Lunch = the cheapest way to buy higher test scores to keep us competitive in the global job market
Medicaid = healthier, smarter, longer lived workers who use fewer medical interventions overall and save the system money
But NOT investing in them is just bad math. Cutting off our own noses to spite our face. Drained Pool Politics.
We can fight about HOW to do it, but we should agree TO DO IT.
If the DNC wasn't so self hating, reactionary, and ineffective they'd be in every county in Texas talking about how these programs stimulate the economy.
