At a time when Trump wants to double premiums and throw 15 million off the health care they have, please remember that the U.S. is the only major country on Earth not the guarantee health care to all as a human right.

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year.
Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses.
No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.

This is what oligarchy looks like:
Trump gave corporate America a $920 billion tax break.
Now, corporations like Amazon, Meta, Apple, Google & Lockheed Martin are returning the favor by giving Trump $300 million for a fancy ballroom.
That’s a pretty good return on investment.

In Vaals zijn de rijmende reclameborden van Boerderijwinkel Akkerhof inmiddels een begrip. De huidige tekst is echter wat ludieker van aard.

Why?
They won't negotiate. They want to pass a bill that will allow the Trump administration to throw 15 million Americans off their health care & double premiums for 20 million Americans.

Republicans are doubling our insurance premiums. They are throwing 15 million people off their health care.
As a result, tens of thousands will unnecessarily die so that the 1% can get a trillion dollars in tax breaks.
Unacceptable. We cannot allow it.

Since he took office, 688 prescription drugs have become MORE expensive.
The legislation I wrote is simple: the U.S. must not pay more for prescription drugs than other countries.
Let’s pass it.
