Frankly I just gave up 100% at the unbelievable election of Trump as POTUS. Apparently pain, suffering, and yes deaths on an indisputable scale will open the eyes of tens of millions of ignorant voters. I say pull the trigger Republicans, let the whole system collapse and just own it! Once we’ve got everyone’s attention, we can move to single-payer or reinstate Obamacare. The suspense is killing me.
“Elections have consequences!”, someone once warned.
I’m with you jimtoday; let it go - ALL of it. No pre-existing conditions, no children on parent’s insurance. Only when it is felt personally will the impact of their vote become real.
Give them what they voted for and when it hits them personally, and they complain, be ever so sympathetic, but say, “I’m so sorry. But you voted Republican…”
In what world would political leaders aspire to cutting health insurance coverage by 30% and the distribute the few remaining crumbs to those they didn’t cut? I thought that we were better than this. All to save a few (ok, a lot) of bucks for the 1%.
@chicago11–“I thought that we were better than this.”
Turns out that some of us might not be.
