The New Horror Awaiting Us If the GOP Is Successful
By Thom Hartmann A...
Trump and the Republican Party have been screaming about the horrors of Obamacare ever since it was passed in the early years of the Obama presidency. Today, their lawsuit to completely destroy Obamacare is being heard in a federal appeals court, and may well go from there to the Supreme Court. If the Republicans succeed, millions of people in America will lose their health insurance, and all the rest of us who use insurance from for-profit companies will once again face the loss of all our insurance coverage if we get seriously ill, or the absolute unavailability of insurance coverage if we have a pre-existing condition. Republicans think this is a good idea.This is political dynamite, and the Democrats should be using it aggressively - and we all need to be telling our friends, family and neighbors about the horrors that will await us if the GOP is successful.

As usual, you have it backwards. The political dynamite is the party of death's socialist plan to completely do away with private health insurance. Most people who have employer provided plans are satisfied and want to keep them. What does Bernie plan to do about them?

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
It feels as though America has had 3 years of a continuous barroom brawl. Enough. Eight would leave the place a wreck.
