I am here to discuss politics in a non-abrasive way.
Politics are important, believe it or not. There is no such thing as an apolitical billionaire (I'm not a billionaire or even close).

The ACA is the right wing plan. That's why they have no plan. We need a real opposition party that will push for #MedicareForAll
If not, they're going to keep coming back for the ACA, and we won't be able to shake fascism.
