Im not gonna forget, my health insurance DID double. I can't afford it now and will cancel. Insurance companies won't care, if 50% of the people they doubled the price for, stay and pay, they have lost nothing.

The legislative agenda currently in Washington reflects a major shift in how the federal government approaches the social safety net. While "killing" these programs is the term often used, the Republican leadership describes their mandate as "restructuring" and "fiscal modernization."

This was the #1 mandate from the Republican party: Killing our health care. #2 is killing Social Security. Time to remove every last Republican and never let them control anything again. They DO NOT represent the American people. They are bought and paid for by special interest groups.

I noticed whenever a show/movie decides to have these quiet, introspective moments like in Eternals, The Acolyte, or even Andor, that’s when people decide to call it “slow” or poorly written. It’s like no, you’ve just conditioned yourself to see action moments as the only valid thing.

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
