Does universal healthcare have to be advertised beforehand as something that will be crafted in full view of the public and then actually hammered out in those goddam secretive smoke filled back rooms, and then after implementation costs fucking explode and I'm not expected to notice my premium for 2017 is pennies short of $13,000 ?
Yeah, I can afford it*, but I know it's a certainty the majority of my neighbors here cannot. "Something" would have had to be done regardless of the election outcome, and even had the dems held their own in congress, since they've eschewed bipartisan support for national healthcare since HillaryCare 25 years ago, they still wouldn't have been able to pass 'corrective' legislation. If there is only one choice, despite it's hideous awfulness, well, that's what we're stuck with.
Nuke it and start over . . .
*and continuing 40% annual premium increases will rapidly preclude me from being able to pay for it in not too many years

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
