Every time I think I couldn't be more disappointed in politics...

' journal:

Today they're going to try to push through, in secret, a bill to repeal the ACA. Nothing they've pointed out so far would give better healthcare to you or me, and if they're doing it in secret, there's nothing good about it. The number to call is this: 202-224-3121

So when Democrats go through proper channels to pass their bill, it's being 'rammed down the throats of the American people'. But it's okay for their party to make one in secret, to get it passed without anyone being able to object, because... Because.

How the fuck do you fight people without any shame, standards, or morals?

Honestly I don't know. It makes it worst when there is severe and obvious hypocrisy coming from them more than the left. Such as them demanding that left wings who burn the flag should leave the country even though they were openly burning the flag themselves back in 2008.

Its why I'm anti political cos people don't have the brain capacity to realize some shit is going on. (And then there is net neutrality but not gonna get into that)

There's an acronym that's infamous in a mostly bi-partisan forum I used to regularly visit: IOKIYAR.  It's OK If You're A Republican.

And you're dreaming if the democrats don't have a similar saying for their side.

I was expecting all this. I mean this here be 'Murica, the land that CHARGES THOUSANDS... for meds that cost UNDER a hundred. Why should ANYTHING our government do be in OUR interest...?

Government's specialty is taking simple things and complicating them, so of course healthcare is going to be several times more expensive than it has to be.

"How the fuck do you fight people without any shame, standards, or morals?"

Ideally by bringing their actions to light (public attention).  The problem is Trump's every-day smoke-screen of ridiculousness and atrocities is the perfect diversion to help hide all these Republican schemes going on in the background.  Because that's far from the only one being snuck through.

Hitler went through "proper channels" with the Enabling Act.  That didn't make it any less wrong.

And do you mean to say that the democrats passing a bill that gives them, not you, the final say on your healthcare needs shows shame, standards and morals?  That's on top of now being able to punish you for inaction.

Years ago, the Republican Club of my home town sent me a letter asking me to switch my voter registration to Republican. I first was going to ignore it, but then figured that they'd try again, so I wrote back and simply stated that the Republican party never offers me candidates that represent MY views. They never bothered me again.

BUT I daily see in the news attempts by the Republicans to move the USA into a reactionary regime. Under Nixon, Reagan, the 2 Bushes and now Trump, I lost my full-time job due to cuts,cuts,cuts, and am now out of even a part-time job.

To get to the skinny, I always felt that deporting a person to a land which he does NOT remember (can YOU recall things when you were 3 or 4 ? and where your language is NOT spoken ?) is totally immoral. No, these people are, for all practical purposes, born American !
