This is why I’m standing up and voting NO on these spending bills. They do nothing to tackle the health care crisis that working families are facing.

The Senate exists for the same reason that the ACA doesn't have a public option: it was negotiated to placate the necessary votes. Slave states were nervous about being beholden to public will so we massively over-elevated state representation. www.law.cornell.edu/constitution...

The trade offs are you and or your employer pay 650 more per month in taxes there, or the same amount in premiums here.
Everyone pays in the UK and Canada. It’s not free. And no, just raising taxes on billionaires and companies won’t come close to paying for it.
This way you have control

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.
