A lot of people missing the timing and current context of this idea.
Our representatives are now spinning you a story about how they had to cave on the government shuttdown because they wanted you to have your SNAP benefits for the holidays. And that they'll "later" work out what they're going to do about the healthcare premiums that are rising as high as 1000% in some cases.
Fuckers, we LOANED you all that money, you're giving us back a fraction of what we expect from our government. We didn't ask for war with Venezuela, we didn't ask for tariffs and mass deportations, we didn't ask for anyone to bail out tech companies and criminals and we certainly didn't ask for a goddamn ballroom.
They throw this back at us like we should be grateful that they're willing to give us $300 for food when we fall down, instead of treating that like an inalienable right in the wealthiest country on earth. To say nothing of the healthcare debacle.
We're one of the only nations on earth who charge you as much as a new car just to walk in and get care for minor problems. Every other nation who wants an actual healthy population who can work and generate their GDP actually want their people healthy and educated.
But our "representatives" come up with deals to make it look like the crumbs they throw you are somehow a sacrifice they're willing to make for you. IT'S YOUR MONEY TO BEGIN WITH.
I want healthcare.
