I beg you, read one article on how the US legislature functions.
The bottom line is change is possible, if enough Americans vote as though they are not temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
- scarecrowbob 2y agoI mean, "monkeys might fly out of my butt" is possible, I suppose. And it seems to be about the level of response merited by your comeback. It's also possible, as you state in your comment, that I have literally never read one article (or book) in my time being ruled by the US on how their legislature functions, and that I'm wholly ignorant of the mechanisms of the US legislature. It's also possible that you have your head up your ass because the fantasy that either party has the actual ability to fix what are deeply structural problems, much less has the will to do so, is more appealing than registering the depth of the problem. I have in the past, believed that these reforms were possible, and I still believe that they are "possible" in the sense that literally anything is possible in this world. You don't respond to the question all that begs, which is why, if everyone in the US deeply hates the healthcare system, none of it has yet been fixed.
- relaxing 2y agoI responded that way because this > The fact that the Democrats absolutely did not fix this system begs the question of why it did not get fixed. has a very clear and simple answer that renders the rest of your post nonsensical.
