Covok posted:I do write my congressman, phone bank for Democrats, and volunteered at soup kitchen. I also do other things. But this election taught me that a bunch of people telling me everything is alright is the wrong advice to take. Those people are always wrong and things are always worse than you expect. The bad thing will always happen and the evil guys will always win. So you got a fight as hard as possible to eke out some kind of pathetic victory. That's all that goodness will ever achieve in this universe for we live in a very uncaring place and our lives do not matter. You suck

Since the Appalachians apparently don't count as mountains I guess everything from Colorado to the east is "east coast"? Or just east of the Mississippi?

evilweasel posted:Trying to make the bill bipartisan to avoid, well, the last 7 years of heath care wars. They don't want to make the bill actually bipartisan. If they did it wouldn't be kicking millions of people to the curb because "lol gently caress 'em they aren't rich." They want the appearance of being bipartisan so they can blame everything on the Democrats. Unfortunately they've put themselves in a situation where they have total power and no way to spin the disaster their health plan would actually be. Literally every promised GOP policy point is going to make things worse for >90% of Americans if it actually goes into effect. They painted themselves into a corner and are desperately trying to resolve the situation without destroying their own political power. However, they're increasingly hated by the public, Trump has historically low approval ratings, and they're at the point where they have to either change course or openly admit that they just don't care what the American public wants. Generally speaking the American public's view of the ACA is "good but needs some improvements. Let's keep it and fix it." The Republican plan is literally "burn the whole thing down and I don't care how many people burn to death with it."

The tiny solace is everyone of those dumbass Republican tweets is getting swarmed with people calling them the ratfuckers they are. I don't really have a lot of faith left in this country since we are just too polarized but it would be nice if maybe we woke up for a bit and realized that one of our parties is literally trying to kill us and isn't acting in good faith.
