Can you ask it to refund the energy it used to generate that?

And damn did she have tail.

This music is of the highest craftsdwarfship (the DF main theme)

I think you mean it really does.

There was a window to bar him from office using a technique like this and it was before the election.

Unless the theory is something substantial changed between 11/5 and now this is an absolutely awful idea.

I... agree with Nancy Pelosi on something?

Wtf is the world coming to.

(Fuck her opinion on Bernie's statement though - democrats are absolutely out of touch with the working class).

Equally bad, you say?

Well, you're clearly a very bad judge.

Yes - aka not a red state. I don't believe many state governments are deep in debt enough to be close to their borrowing limit but that's a bit out of my wheelhouse.

It's mainly state run and the plans are state administered - it'd definitely depend on your state but blue states would likely try to sustain it. (And they could probably cheat the federal government out of the costs to run it by paying for it out of harmonized SALTs if they're smart).

We've got Bieb- wait no we've got other people too - please don't slam the door so fast!

Opal in sky has been hot lately - we'll send them!

Bear in mind - the poor (even the elderly poor) generally get coverage under medicaid or qualify as dual-eligibles. But it ain't much.

Federal funding for medicaid is actually already in the shitter so plan administration and sustainability is mostly a state matter. If Trump suddenly pulled medicaid funding it'd cause a lot of financial stress but most states could probably weather the storm in the short term.

The people really fucking shafted by Medicare cuts would be the disabled which (as little help as they're given under the US system) would be unable to afford regular care on medicaid's FFS model (where partial costs can often exceed the amount they're legally allowed to save (it sucks, but that's a separate topic)). Anyone like my stepson who has BPD, ASD, and a few more spicy disorders would be fucked if they tried to maintain daylight (let alone overnight) staff supports. That's not even getting into med or doc costs...

And the old folks, of course... it'll be an extremely rude awakening to elderly conservatives and probably cause a real shock to the stock market as people are forced to disinvest to avoid dying if they're lucky enough to have that option.

That's going to suck but I can't deny a fair bit of shaudenfrauder for the old fucks believing the leopard will never eat their faces. It's insane how conservative retirees are while being leeches completely dependent on social services.

Still, it'd be really nice if that didn't happen.
