Lindsey Graham still thinks it can pass, and who really knows. The bill sponsors and White House are throwing billions around in “block grants” to states. That strategy may still turn a Democratic head or two. Isn’t it strange how they horrifying “National Debt” isn’t so horrifying when Republicans are in charge? A balanced budget? That is for suckers.
But that’s inside baseball. Consider this larger point – the whole shit show hangs on whether or not Insurance companies will have the ability to gouge people who happen to already be injured or sick. The GOP is OPENLY saying that insurance companies should have no civic responsibility WHATSOEVER, and that their only responsibility is to their bottom line profitability.
We Democrats can’t beat that noxious proposition at the ballot box? Truly – we suck.
