I know, right now we are all consumed with the impact the coronavirus is having on our lives. As of noon today, April 27, the U.S. has lost at least 55,551 lives to this pandemic. Thousands of lives lost, families disrupted by grief and uncertainty. Millions out of work. Jobs lost, some to return, but many, perhaps not as some businesses won’t survive. Schools shut down. Hospitals overrun in some areas. People frustrated with stay-at-home orders, and some states reopening, perhaps too soon. Let’s hope not.So there hasn’t been much talk about what comes next. But we should be thinking about that, because I firmly believe Republicans will suddenly decide that the more than $3 trillion that’s been spent so far must be recouped. And what’s been their favorite target in the past?Entitlements. That means Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid will be in their gunsights. That’s the topic in this piece from Not Fake News.biz.
