Rick Perry ‘proudly’ refuses health care to 1.2 million low-income Texans

He's obviously doing his part to close the trillion dollar budget deficit.

You're forgetting that the deficit was caused by tax cuts, krazen.  You would be more accurate to say 'he's doing his part to kill poors in order to maintain privilege' (though to be fair, that is redundant - privilege is always paid for with the death of those beneath you in the hierarchy).

What tax cuts? The only tax cuts in recent history currently in effect were signed by Barack Obama.

I never said anything about Obama.  The top tax rate used to be 70% or more, now it isn't.  That's the problem.

And yet the state is poor and people are dying and starving.

No, the state is rich and people are dying from being too fat.

Actually it is precisely accurate to say that they are poor and fat.  Poverty=obesity.  It is a servile condition which causes the citizenry to be fattened like beeves by the corporations.
