Grayson's "Die quickly" repub health care solution

Last edited Fri Nov 1, 2013, 10:38 AM - Edit history (1)

He was scolded for suggesting such a thing on the floor of the House, but the sentiment applies to essentially everything the repubs do. Health care, slashing food stamps, keeping the minimum wage down and trying to do away with it altogether, outlawing feeding the homeless, cracking down on homeless encampments, militarizing local police forces; the list seems endless.

They really do give the impression that they are waiting impatiently for the lazy, shiftless takers to crawl into a ditch and die, and doing everything possible to accelerate the process.
