    2010 was 15 years ago, They haven’t done or said shit Since then on healthcare, and what they ended up producing was a fucking handjob to the insurance companies. They refuse to confront drug companies, Healthcare companies, or trusts operating in every sector of the economy.

      2010 was the last time they had power, they’ve had 48 or less senate seats for over a decade.

      Blame Joe Lieberman for the handjob but at least we got the preexisting conditions protections that has had those companies seething and malding ever since.

        1. They did nothing.

        That ignores them not fighting, so long after the fact I do not care to describe once again what I mean by that, but I should not have to describe to you how to play politics. We need strong leadership and we have not had that.

          You’re saying the most productive congress in our lifetime did nothing? You simply live in an alternative reality.

            Everything continued to get worse so why don’t you give it a rest. If pretending like these Democrats were doing a good job worked we wouldn’t be in this position. Stop trying to bully everybody into anything like this is an acceptable job.
