It’s like this: Law firms use the word KITTY in all caps in their standard legal docs, so it’s easy to find and replace the PLACEHOLDER word with the client’s name. SocSec uses a ridiculous “birthday” in 1875 as a PLACEHOLDER when a birthday is unclear. To find and correct later. Duh, Elon, duh.

The Trump-House Republican budget includes hundreds of billions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, Head Start, and food assistance. Meanwhile, the rich get tax cuts. Trump isn’t lowering costs for working people – he’s raising them.
