The 'useful' comments from Gut-whatever were in line with a common Republican point they want to hammer into people, which is that everyone must be useful by providing labor. Consistency of ideology and manipulation about it is common across conservative messaging, and not by accident. The theme here is that everyone, whether someone is a 12 year old kid, elderly, disabled, if they are not providing labor for the ruling class and/or receive more physical/monetary resources than they create, to the wealthy they are useless and might as well be dead.
