The cruelty of this administration is appalling. They are unwilling to support people's basic needs (safety, food resources, health care, etc). Their ego-centricity and greed is readily evident.

Continue to push back!

Holy Saint Ronnie days? If I were a Republican and I had the chance to sign where I didn't before I would now. All assure that's going ashore.

My monthly increase will probably be in the $105 / $1000 annually.

In other words: nothing new, we're just happily going back to the holy St. Ronnie days.

Insurance companies will be taking a hit because people cannot afford it. It looks like businesses would be pissed at Trump for causing inflated market prices. There could be pressure on congress/ cabinet members to set the president straight on his psychotic way of running things or perhaps maybe this is wishful thinking but I don’t see how a psycho can keep getting away with such malfeasance.

But he does keep getting away with it. So incredibly frustrating. (I also suffer endlessly from wishful thinking!)

Very good point. That's the only hope there is: if businesses lose out because of his insane ideas.

Still, if I were a federal government employee, I'd be incredibly pissed at those 10 or 12 Democratic senators (I know only eight came to the forefront). These employees sacrifice so much during any government shutdown only to be dropped like hot potatoes.

Medicare premiums have increased a lot. I spoke to them about the increase and they replied to me two reasons, government cutbacks and increased drug prices.

I have been extremely impressed by Maxwell Frost - definitely a Dem to watch!

Maxwell Frost is amazing--cogent, able to keep track of so many strands of the committee work he's been assigned. I couldn't have more respect for him. We are SO fortunate to have legislators like him
