Trump's 'big beautiful bill' is an ugly fiscal mess created by Republicans

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : Opinion: Republicans should reform Social Security.
53% : Work requirements for Medicaid should be the bare minimum of reforms.
48% : Do they have the stomach for it? GOP's proposed spending cuts are good, but they must go further I recognize that it is a difficult political sell for leadership to take benefits away from people, but if we ever want to have a balanced budget, there needs to be a serious look at entitlement reform beyond the newly suggested cuts.
47% : Once again, most elected Republicans are more loyal to Trump getting his way than they are to any semblance of conservative governance.
37% : Real reforms to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are all required to balance the federal budget, and currently, neither party has the stomach to do so.
35% : Real differences in federal spending have to go through Congress, but the current Congress is downright cowardly when it comes to addressing serious budgetary strains.
30% : The proposed work requirements were originally slated to begin in 2029, pushing the political flak of the legislation until after Trump had already left office.
24% : The new bill amounts to nothing more than an attempt by Trump to renew those tax cuts by any means necessary.
16% : While the legislation is in flux, some of its proposals are aimed at helping working Americans rather than the wealthy Americans to whom Trump is accused of catering.
12% : The Trump-endorsed tax bill will make things worse Trump had reportedly pushed for tax hikes for the wealthiest Americans in recent weeks, but the members of Congress opted not to include them, instead renewing the 2017 tax cuts as they were.
