The world's richest man is concerned about "government overspending."
Yet his concern about deficits seems to disappear when it comes to extending tax cuts that will disproportionately benefit billionaires like him.
Tax cuts that will balloon the deficit by $5 trillion, btw.

Republicans gear up for the coming battle over $5 trillion tax cut's costs

The Ohio Supreme Court has nullified the $650 million judgement that multiple counties won against Big Pharma over the opioid crisis.
The court ruled that the state's product liability law prohibits counties from bringing public nuisance claims against pharma corporations.

Cost of extending the expiring Trump tax cuts for the rich: $4.6 trillion
Cost of cutting corporate tax rate to 15%: $1 trillion
Both Trump proposals will explode the deficit and be used as an excuse to gut programs that millions rely on, like Social Security.
Be warned.
