[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]A co-worker has a daughter with severe special needs. She has 8 specialists. It's a constant battle to keep her safe and alive.[/quote] [quote]If it’s a constant battle, is keeping her alive doing more harm than good?[/quote] You should be banned. Feeling emboldened now, but wishing you your own personal battle in the near future. [/quote] It was a question, and a valid one because it goes to the heart of the issues being debated. This bill is making it harder for all kinds of people to obtain healthcare, and it was created and passed by people who are supposedly representing the American people. [b]So what values do we have as a society? Who do we think deserves healthcare access?[/b] If we disagree with what our representatives are doing, what are we doing about it? Are people in fact disagreeing with what’s going on?[/quote] I would guess that the majority of people who voted for republican reps don’t really know what’s in the bill. Or they believe lies that it’s only affecting people who were cheating to get Medicaid, or illegal immigrants, etc. The last election showed that people who are more engaged in politics voted for Democrats overall. People who understand are not for this bill. Even many of the republican reps don’t like it but somehow they’re afraid of Trump. [/quote] Or they DGAF. They choose ignorance. [/quote] And democracy can’t work if no one cares. [/quote] This. People, it’s a piece of paper. We imbue it with meaning. Someone posted in politics the other day that you have clean food, safe medicine, paved roads, etc because of the will of a government who wants society to thrive. If we elect leaders who are greedy and corrupt, we are less likely to get those things. Why should people have to move to Alaska now to get access to Medicaid? [/quote]
