It's not personal, politicians listen to those from whom they need the most and who yell the loudest. Election season is the only time they need anything from the people.
I am sending your OPs and any others expressing these concerns, to my Senators and Reps and asking them when we can expect them to start publicly declaring that Democrats are the party who will fight like hell to stop any cuts, and all the disguises they come under, as if their own lives depended on it.
No point in wasting these OPs. Send them to your Reps so they get to hear from the people because you speak for the people, Manny.
Ignore the naysayers, do what FDR did, welcome their attacks.
You are doing what a good citizen does.
