republicans be? We were so disgusted when we ended up with the ACA instead of universal health care. The democratic congress and president negotiated health care rights away so they could "compromise" with these idiots.

Now the watered down health care is being implemented (they got "95% of what they wanted" said Boehner at the time) and the same
idiots who prevented meaningful health care reform (it ended up being insurance "reform&quot have shut down the government and are threatening to destroy the world (pinky and the brain style) to prevent an already unfair (but a start hopefully) ACA enactment.

We need MONEY OUT OF POLITICS if we have any hope of regaining a representative govt.

Senator Sanders is the voice of sanity and average people. What a great President he would make. He is not afraid of the elite, he is
for the 99%.

IMO, congress should not be paid just like "unessential" govt. employees. The elite would probably keep financially supporting the very worse corporatists though and again, Americans would lose.

Money out of politics is the only way that the majority can survive.
