“Return the dignity of work to young men who need to be at work instead of playing video games all day.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson defended Republican efforts to attach work requirements to Medicaid, suggesting that young American men are wasting their lives “playing video games all day” instead of working.
Johnson’s remarks came as House Republicans pushed forward a budget framework that would help finance President Donald Trump’s tax cuts, with plans to slash federal spending by trillions. GOP leaders are eyeing $880 billion in reductions to Medicaid, a move critics warn could gut health coverage for millions of low-income Americans.

Also, when I was homesteading, I didn’t officially have a job and didn’t make much money, but I was working far more than an average full time job and was able to support myself other than the cost for health insurance.
But the whole idea that access to healthcare should be linked to and require employment is insane and sociopathic.
They are Nazis. Nazis believe that anyone who isn’t a productive cog in their industrial and military machine doesn’t deserve to live. The USA needs to overthrow this Nazi regime before they start the mass exterminations.
