The billionaires who run the U.S. government are not impacted by any of their own terrible policies. It is like we are being ruled by people who live in another country. Which, in more than one way, we are.

The richest man in the world calls people who get help from government programs the “parasite class.” But Medicaid’s beneficiaries aren’t parasites. Half of them are children. If we’re talking about people who depend on government, Elon Musk is the biggest “parasite” of all.
