(1,354 posts)I never stated that her plan was Single Payer. You stated falsely that no one has ever EVAH brought this topic into the political discussion. I proved you wrong. I'm glad that you have finally learned all the errors in your previous message even if admitting the mistake was a little too hard to do.
So my point still stands.
Again, you're literally saying that people are dying right now from the loss of the ACA, this will somehow make this the perfect time to push through an ill thought out plan that won't do anything for years, has no details fleshed out etc.
People are actually not dying due to lack of health insurance, people will be dying from lack of the ACA if this current bill is allowed to pass, which it might before September 30th, with 50 votes. THIS is why people are saying it was moronic to put this bill forth before 0ctober1st.
This is factual reality No one is saving lives by allowing ACA to be undermined the way this bill doing. This is a moral issue, and it's immoral to be playing with esoteric debates of ill thought out bills and introducing them at such a precarious time. It is politically moronic, it's sadistic, it's insane and profoundly callous.
Look at all those consequences of a bill that cannot be defended, and which is what we should all be laser focused on because it has a chance of passing with 50 votes RIGHT FREAKING NOW? Yeah look at them. And then examine how utterly stupid it is to play into the GOP talking points right now where instead of defending their murderous bill, now they can whine and complain about Bernie and his bill.
I hate to tell you, but actual people are endangered by this political stunt, and waiting for "single payer" when no rational plan for it has been put forward in any workable way, is just callously and sadistically saying that it's fine for people to die while people rant on ignorantly about how pure their quaint notions about a plan they don't understand are.
It's a shame the pure won't do their homework, cling to their delusions and are fine with causing millions upon millions of people to lose their ACA protections because of a slogan.
I hate to tell you but real people are suffering right now and dying and they may not be real to you, but they can't wait til people learn the basics.
