Wow, shrift! I'll think on it.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

So... what questions would you want to ask a member of Congress about the ACA?
That's kinda tough considering the current level of power Dems have, you know, none. There's lots of questions I have if tweaking the existing law was on the table. Maybe what are the implications of ACA repeal for people with employer-provided healthcare or people with Medicare?

I'd probably ask if any solid replacement plans for the ACA have been suggested, and if so, by whom.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
At lunch I went to Walgreens and Target. There was very little vday chocolate or candy on shelves, none of it the good stuff, and it was not even 50% off! I blame Trump. I refused to buy anything.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I don't think it can be done. You can't turn the clock back, and I think that's what rural America wants.
Finally realizing they could lose their health coverage and their SS/Medicare has shook a lot of them, though. We could win most of them by promising to improve healthcare and benefits, and promising to bring new-industry jobs like solar to largely rural states like WV. WV wants jobs. They just can't imagine any decent-paying jobs that aren't what they've always done before. We need to be helping them see how much better off they could be with different jobs and better support. And then keeping our fucking promises, because if we break them they'll be even more bitter than they are now.

Jesus, all I have to do this think about the word cloud of what word Hillary said most (JOBS) vs what the media said (EMAILS) and the flames erupt from my face.

I know! They weren't receptive to the message at the time, because it came from someone they'd been taught to despise. We're in a different world now, a world in which they've been betrayed by the party they always trusted. They might be more receptive to solid plans for improving their lives from the other party. If the other party had any solid plans. Which they should.
