Looks like little Justin got banned from here again by KMIZ. Yet again he changes his name. Pathetic he has to keep changing his log in just to make childish, idiotic posts. Must be getting his hours cut at McDs to have the time to do it so often.

What gripes me is that the big pharmaceutical companies charge US citizens through the roof for their drugs, but then they sell the same drugs to other countries at a fraction of the cost

Why don’t they just print more medicine?

We have 3D printers that crank out ghostly guns, surely we can clone a pill.

No. Big Pharm makes a killing on this crap they bring in from China and they have to pay off all of the Reps and Senators who are on the take plus 10% for The Big Guy. Don't expect any miracles.

Pharm companies already make billions of dollars. Far to many people in this country can't afford their prescriptions. Absolutely congress should step in and regulate prices

The profits go to R & D. Most of these people drive broken Chevy Cruzes with failed turbochargers. The wealthier drive used BMWs. And they don't care about the poor only the ones they can get money from.

Should Missouri's U.S. senators support the "one big beautiful bill?"

This is a good start and the best that could be passed. Don't let perfect be the enemy of great.

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

It is a wealth transfer Bill: From the poorest Americans to the richest.

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

They are going to take Medicaid away from 16 million people and who knows what else. Josh Hawley has got to go if he votes yes.

Tax reductions for the super rich ... doesn't make sense when it cuts necessary programs and helps inflate our Country's debt

The only way they can make this look like it doesn’t completely destroy the deficit is by making certain tax cuts and spending increases “temporary.” I support the tax cuts, as long as they are met with subsequent spending cuts. The true burden of government is what it spends, not what it taxes.

We will vote every last Republican out of office. Stealing food and Healthcare from [anyone] to profit the rich is an act of war and shall be treated as such.

It would increase the national debt by about 3 trillion dollars, and take away necessary infrastructure, all while lowering taxes on the wealthy.

As a customer of the Affordable Care Act I find it appalling that the two senators from Missouri would even consider supporting this bill that will potentially triple my monthly premium and also cut benefits. They should be ashamed of themselves for bowing down to the President. Checks and balances

You are kidding, right? Missouri congressmen need to read their job descriptions and represent their constituents. Voting for this bill is a betrayal of the will of the people.

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.
