    This is a Democrat government shutdown -- they own it. Republicans' only option to end it is to break the Democrat's filibuster by ending the filibuster once and for all.
    Oh look, DMX7 is wrong again.

    Amazing the lengths Chump and Whinehole will go to in order to defend the Democrat gerontocracy. I'd like to know why they refuse to criticize the current ty old party but they refuse to talk about it. They just do what they're told.

    Trump and Republicans seem to be getting the lion's share of the blame and mass support for Trump is cratering. Maybe why that's why y'all are so nervous right now.

    Trump Marks Full Month Of Government Shutdown With $3.4 Million Golf Trip To Florida

    WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump marked the first full month of the ongoing government shutdown Friday by blaming it all on Democrats and taking a $3.4 million golf trip to Florida, bringing the total that taxpayers have spent on his hobby to $60.7 million since he retook the presidency in January.

    This is his 13th trip to Mar-a-Lago, his Palm Beach country club, which is across the Intracoastal Waterway from his golf course in West Palm Beach, adjacent to the county jail.

    Asked about the shutdown, which has furloughed nearly 700,000 federal workers and is forcing another 700,000 to continue working without pay, Trump blamed Democrats. He told reporters after arriving on Air Force One: “It’s their fault. Everything is their fault.”

    During the flight south, he spent time posting photos of his latest renovation project at the White House, redoing the Lincoln bathroom in ornate marble and gold. “The Refurbished Lincoln Bathroom in the White House — Highly polished, Statuary marble!” he wrote.

    According to the Government Accountability Office, 70% of wage-earning adults who rely on government programs like SNAP and Medicaid work full-time, largely in the vaunted private sector. Notably, that includes workers at hugely profitable companies like Walmart and McDonald’s, whose low wages are effectively been subsidized by tax dollars without any of the blame or paternalistic lectures. As The Daily Yonder notes, SNAP recipients are also disproportionately made up of rural households (13.7% SNAP enrollment) compared to households in metro areas (11.4%), which runs against popular perceptions and tropes about need.

    Yes, I've recently replied twice to a graph you posted wrt the ACA

    It only slowed the growth of healthcare costs, it never reduced them in absolute terms because it never sought to manage the costs.

    Republicans have raised the cost of ACA premiums in the BBB and now refuse to pass a fix, do you have anything to say about that?
    or are you allergic to commenting on the present?

    Why do you insist health care costs rise this much?

    You never talk about your desire for higher health care premiums for employed US citizens. All you do is display your emotional fragility and fear of engagement on an anonymous message board.

    ...was modeled on Romneycare, which drew directly from a Heritage Foundation concept...the individual insurance mandate

    The ACA essentially is the Republican health care plan until another one gets here...
