This bears repeating, because it was written a long time ago and is more apt than ever:
A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they will never sit in.

Here’s your daily reminder that 7 Democrats killed the ACA and got precisely nothing. My insurance goes from $200/mo to $1000/mo starting January 1st. If you aren’t screaming about this every single day you’re a selfish asshole.

Got to see Warfare on the big screen. Best sound design I’ve heard in a while. What this film got right (like Saving Private Ryan) but Da 5 Bloods did not - if you have a gun battle in a film, YOU DO NOT USE MUSIC. EVER.
In Warfare, there is no score. And that’s how it should be.

Every Dem who voted to end the shutdown without the ACA being protected is a traitor to the American people. They must be removed from office immediately
Donald Trump spent months trying to tell Americans his tariffs weren't raising costs and that rising prices aren’t a problem.
Now, his plan to bring down costs is to roll back just a few of the tariffs that he imposed in the first place.
It’s time to repeal ALL of Trump’s reckless tariffs.

Americans consistently vote against their own interests - to the point that we now have an illegitimate government. My question is, can we vote our way out of this hole?
