Banning medical debt from credit reports

Negotiating drug prices

He's only able to do these because he opposes universal healthcare. He wants people to die of lack of access to healthcare (70,000 per year) or lack of insurance (45,000 per year). What do dead people, or people who can't afford to be diagnosed, or people who can't afford necessary procedures care about their credit reports or drugs they can't get prescribed? Why would anyone cheer a horribly policy?

As if the media aren't congratulating him enough on his "tough red line" for Israel's genocide that they somehow never break. Ever the victims, Democrats in power are.

Let's not bash progress in pursuit of perfection. These policies are directly impacting me in the positive, which is more than we could say for the previous president.

Let's not celebrate inaction on matters that mean life or death to people. None of the above have helped me, or anyone less fortunate than me.

Thus the false internet-leftist is revealed. "Me first!"

The person I replied to made it about themselves. If they are allowed to say "I think this is good because it helped me", why am I not allowed to say it's not good because it didn't help me? Are you admitting that Democrats are "me first"?

Also, conveniently leaving off the more important part of the sentence, aren't you?

No goalposts my friend, you wrote what you think, and that's yours.

Typical nothing answer.
