• affordable for senior citizens and Medicare patients (medicare is for people 65 and up)

• Marijuana reclassified from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3

• Something that needed to be done, but it's still falls short. We have miles of lead pipe that's going unaddressed and population centers with contaminated drinking water.

These are half-measures, tinkering at the edges of problems.

The insulin is especially glaring. They had the will to pass a bill and chose to ignore most of the population. I'm not saying that it's not a net positive... buuuut, it's a pretty damn small positive. Compared to the harm insulin prices cause every day? It's, like, an exponential difference in scope.

For marijuana, they have the presidency. They could higher staff and dedicate a workforce exclusively to generating the paperwork needed to pardon marijuana convictions. I'm not certain, but I think the executive can also just... decide not to prosecute in the first place. They reclassified it for the sake of a headline that sounds nice, not because they're serious about this.

infrastructure bill is just climate change acceleration. More roads, more SUV's.

This meme's missing the genocide arming, strike busting, and affordable EV banning

I resent this notion: when the tax evaders pumped money into trump with the humble request of practically no longer paying taxes, Trump was there for them in an instant. When the arms industry was about to ask for an even more ludicrous cut of the national budget, he diverted even more their way before they could even finish the sentence. When the companies cutting up the carcass of the environment for money at the cost of a livable planet asked for the removal of any sort of environmental protection laws, Trump was there for them. When the monopolist student loan providers, private hospital operators, or private prison complex slavers were asking for unfettered access to all their victims' money, Trump gave them the go in a heartbeat, so I will not stand for anyone saying that Trump doesn't care about Americans. They just have to be the couple super-rich lobbies bribing him and his cronies.

Otherwise, tough luck.

My favorite part is where Hexbear decided this was worth brigading.

Love the people downvoting this. How dare I point it out? lmao

A table full of money would be things like "government-provided healthcare" and "drugs legalized", not "one specific healthcare need made affordable" and "one of the most mild illegal drugs made slightly less illegal".
