Throwing in the towel, claiming the shutdown.

Once again, the Democrats fail to put up any form of resistance against a totalitarian United States government, a five-week government shutdown and they give up. while yes it was a painful 5 weeks, I was willing to make the sacrifice and go through the pain to stop or slow down the totalitarian government that has taken over our country and wages “legal warfare” on American citizens threw ICE, defunding and cutting government programs. by giving in the way Democrats did, they now claim those five weeks of pain wholeheartedly and unequivocally it is theirs. Democrats did it, It is no longer a split difference between the two parties, it is now wholeheartedly a Democrat shut down. Democrats caused 5 weeks of pain for nothing. Premiums are still going up; healthcare will be out of reach of millions and millions come next year. So, for 5 weeks of pain what did they gain? Nothing! Absolutely nothing. Some of them will tell you they gained some sort of path to getting the ACA subsidies maintained, I say they got played like a fiddle.

in a typical fashion, because a handful of Democrats did it, all Democrats did it. Your individual actions don't matter, as you are a group an organization; you reflect onto each other therefore, all Democrats regardless of their position did this. This is part of the reason I choose not to affiliate myself with either political party or any for that matter. Because the actions of the few generally reflect on the many regardless of my actual actions or intentions. The phrase the few ruin it for the many comes to mind. not even a week after their blue wave elections. Do they screw the pooch on even having a chance to save there precious government payouts to the insurance company. Public pressure was mounting on Republicans when The Democrats chose to give into Republicans. People were freaking out about everything from travel, food, healthcare, and everything in between. it benefited the Democrats in their election. As soon as they were done with the election, they threw it away, all the pain and suffering we had gone through, now only appears to be for political gain. So, once again the action of four or five democrats reflects on the entirety of the party negatively.

let's face it Republicans will never vote for the ACA subsidies come next month; they already got rid of it in their big beautiful (ball sack) bill and the deer leader chooses not to give a shit about it or anybody for the matter of fact that has to have it. Because, as they've may have gotten rid of the individual mandates fine, it is still mandated in this America to have health care. You still have to click the box, fill out the forum on your income taxes, which implies that the mandate is still in effect without penalty. And everybody's going to be forced to pay higher premiums now. All Republicans would need to do is flip the switch and turn the fines fees back on. Now whether they do decide to reinstate those fines fees, That's another question. But as their clear goal is to rape the American pocketbook giving it all to big business and billionaires, it's quite a possibility they do.

So, what's the path forward, what do we do now how can Democrats come back from this? simply put they have to stop holding on to the old ways, they have to stop holding on to the ACA. Something that was written and developed by the heritage foundation, dubbed Romney Care. Why Obama decided it was a good idea to copy the Republicans. I have no idea; it is beyond me. however, I can tell you it was foolish, short-sided, and stupid. Much needed at the time but never went far enough to fix anything. it was like putting a Band-Aid over a gushing wound.

This is where Democrats always, always fall down, they never go far enough. They're scared of upsetting the apple cart, but at this point the apple cart's been overturned and the apples all over the road. So, why are they still scared of upsetting the apple cart? Democrats wish to move forward from this humiliating self-inflicted defeat they would be wise to embrace Medicare for all. Just give up on the ACA, once again a heritage foundation project. Move the country forward. Not back to the same place that failed millions upon millions of people in this country. The system that kills individuals in this country from depriving them of basic medical treatment by over involving them in the doctor’s office. My wife, who is pregnant, has currently had her insurance company refuse medication prescribed by the doctor for a urinary tract infection, apparently, she didn't try all the other antibiotic medications first. Then specifically for the pregnancy, she had progesterone prescribed to her, rejected for her once again. Supposedly, she didn't see a specialist first. Her OB/GYN was apparently not enough of a specialist to prescribe something so dangerous as progesterone. See apparently it is sometimes used in transitioning between sexes. do you see how ridiculous this is her doctor prescribes her medication, and the insurance companies reject it for no reason other than, we can. this is not just something that happens to her, this is something that happens to everybody, everywhere all the time.

It's time to give up on the old ways, The insurance companies are nothing but corporate death panels that over involve themselves in your day-to-day doctor visit. They must go the way of the dodo; they must not exist anymore. it's as simple as that. End inheritance companies and deploy Medicare for all.
