“How absolutely pathetic,” declared the Justice Democrats, an advocacy group that focuses on assisting progressive challengers willing to take on more establishment lawmakers in office. “Your voters expect you to hold the line for their basic healthcare and food benefits. This is just surrender. Every Senate Democrat that joined Republicans to pass this sold the American people out and we should make sure they have no future in public office.”
“Let’s be clear — this proposal isn’t a compromise, it’s a capitulation,” said Rep. Jonathan L. Jackson (D-Ill.). “Millions [will] lose their health coverage, and millions more [will] face skyrocketing premiums. The Senate should reject this misguided plan. In the House, my vote will be HELL NO.”
The Democratic Party is dead and liberal centrism is an obstacle to progress, the DNC is not a bulwark against fascism it is a tacit and cowardly endorsement of it.
Democrats just condemned ~50,000 US citizens to death every year, let that sink in…
According to the report, premiums for Americans who buy their own health insurance will double on average next year, while 15 million people are expected to lose coverage as a result of the Republican budget. The report details how the cuts would substantially increase the number of uninsured Americans in every state in the country and double the uninsured rate in some states, including Massachusetts and Louisiana. A study from Yale University and the University of Pennsylvania estimates that the cuts could cause more than 50,000 unnecessary deaths every year.
The report includes dozens of firsthand accounts from Americans facing life-threatening consequences:
So you support the Democrats Susan G Komen approach to government? Raise miney to pay for staffers and beurocrats and then give pennies to you actual mission?
Huh?
Susan B Komen would raise a ton of money for breast cancer. But wouldn’t actually spend any money towards helping with the cause. They spent money just to market themselves and “raise awareness” and only contributed around 15% of total funds towards the actual cause.
The poster was criticizing the approach of “raising awareness” for this.
I would also agree that raising awareness doesn’t really do anything when the current regime runs slapdash to laws and norms. You need to clamp down and do everything to resist. Not just sit and pray voters get a chance to make it better when the current regime has been televising they’re gonna do everything they can to limit and prevent voting.
That makes sense. The typos didn’t help me understand…
Raising awareness is literally politics, through. Republicans aren’t going to follow laws, but they do have to worry about midterms. They can’t fully cheat to win.
