Mulvaney: "We need people to go to work. We need you to go to work. We need you to go back to work."
Trump’s Budget Takes From The Safety Net, Gives To The Military
Most of the proposals will be unpopular on Capitol Hill.
The document mostly honors Trump’s unorthodox campaign promise not to cut Social Security or Medicare, but it shows how the president’s domestic agenda is being shaped by Capitol Hill Republicans eager to cancel benefits to supposedly undeserving recipients.
“We need people to go to work,” Trump’s budget director, Mick Mulvaney, said in a briefing with reporters on Monday. Mulvaney is a former member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus.
Mulvaney expounded on the meaning of “Trumponomics,” saying it’s all about rapid economic growth. This budget relies on optimistic growth projections that would help eliminate the federal deficit within 10 years. Though Trump himself hasn’t said a lot about social programs, such as food stamps and disability insurance, Mulvaney said reforming the safety net is key to achieving faster growth.
“If you’re on food stamps and you’re able-bodied, we need you to go to work,” Mulvaney said. “If you’re on disability insurance and you’re not supposed to be, if you’re not truly disabled, we need you to go back to work. We need everybody pulling in the same direction.”

and I have objective proof. I'm very concerned about disabled people who have psychiatric (sorry, I don't know the right word ) disabilities that can be judged subjectivity by the "company doctor ". They already have to fight an uphill battle. 
Work camps for people who are unlucky, or under-educated, or of the wrong class. Take your kids along, and have them help you pay off your debts to society and pay for your sin of being too poor to buy food, medicine, or pay for housing and the education people need to succeed or add "economic growth" to this society.
And I'm sure the few people who fit his definition of truly disabled will find that the Government would rather warehouse them (and put benefits recipients to work "caring" for them"
and maybe find some other way to add "growth" to the economy - maybe by "voluntarily" participating in federal research programs?
He and his ilk view "working" people as numbers that make up a pie chart. Totally interchangeable and disposable. Not worth the investment. And obviously, there's way too many of them dependent on "his" tax dollars.

Oh, and come to think of it, while we're eliminating minimum wage, as some have suggested, let's do away with child labor laws, too. Many of these kids are on a fast track to addiction and prison anyhow. So let's just snatch them up to work in mills, factories and coal mines. 
Who knew it would be so easy to solve all of our social and fiscal problems??? 🙄
