I've read a dozen or more articles about this thing, and not a single
one shows how it helps most Americans. What I do see are tax
credits many use going away, impacts to medicare and medicaid that'll
cause many to loose it, and trillions added to the nationan deficit.
So many republicans voted contrary to what they campaigned about
like not affecting medicare/medicaid. Just not seeing how this helps
anyone other than those who are the most vulnerable. Thoughts?

When you say "articles about this thing", do you mean articles talking about it, or have you seen anything just explaining the bill itself? I had a look recently, and I think a couple
things stuck out. For one thing, it sounds like they're trying to reduce abuse of the medicaid system by increasing standards (i.e., if you're able to work, they want you to work).
Also,
there are tax cuts and an increase in the maximum standard deduction, which would mean more money back to you for most people.

i havent looked into it but no tax on tips and no fed tax on OT is nice.
i do a lot of overtime. but it's a tax credit. we need to make a law instead of temporary changes.
Interesting. Is part of the plan helping the people able to work to find work that they can make enough to live off of, or at least to give them the opportunity to look for work?
Not sure now we are post-COVID, etc., but unemployment used to sort of work that way. It was "your money" because you paid into it, but you did have to prove you were looking for work (if they asked) in order to keep drawing it.
