How is this relevant? Cutting the deficit doesn’t solve the problem. And the folks who created this mess just blew out the deficit by trillions.

It’s relevant because while the comment says that “they’re okay giving up buying first-class tickets” what they really imply is that they want everyone to give up buying first class tickets.
If they want to constrain their own choices to help a nameless “someone,” they can literally do that themselves without involving the taxpayer at large. Just send the check to HHS or to a specific charity or individual.
