Does it matter if those cuts disproportionately impact the middle class and working poor with little or impact on the wealthiest Americans?

Would it help if I list some of the major spending cuts in the current resolution?

Significant cuts to SNAP (food stamps), Head Start, community health centers, HUD low income housing programs, veterans housing assistance, job training for the unemployed...

Where is the shared sacrifice?
