(135,425 posts)nor the next, nor the one after that) we see what the GOP has done--slapped down Graham-Cassidy like a stinky fish on our national table. And they're gonna vote on it soon, and if we can't find three Republicans to say "Fuck No" we can watch not only the ACA die a strangled death, but we can also watch the slow, steady dismantling of all assistive public health care over the next decade or two, or it will be held hostage like the debt ceiling.
You need an operation? Pricey drugs? Go Fund Me! And if you're not cute enough, endearing enough, or have a compelling personal backstory that touches the hearts of strangers (throw in some religion on your begging page, now) you'll die--because if you don't have the cash, your only hope is charity.
I'm quite disgusted at this "Let it all blow up....that will make the unicorn appear" attitude of these naive nitwits. People are going to DIE if the "revolutionaries" don't get off their asses and join the fight to preserve ACA. They're not doing it though--and a lot of the "Let it burn" attitude is coming from creatures that look pretty damn botty to me.
