I could totally see that. You did that quite well.

You have completed your Maggie education. I hereby award you your degree./

Oh, and on the Graham-Cassidy bill:

The proposal, crafted by Sens. Bill Cassidy (R-La.), Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) and Dean Heller (R-Nev.), essentially turns control of the health-care markets over to the states. Rather than funding Medicaid and subsidies directly, that money would be put into a block grant that a state could use to develop any health-care system it wants. It also allows states to opt out of many ACA regulations…

The Medicaid expansion and subsidy funding would be cut sharply compared to current spending, going to zero in a decade…

The plan makes huge cuts in federal ACA spending…

If the streamlining turns out to be insufficient, the cuts would hit liberal states the hardest…

It’s not so much a “plan” as a “gigantic pile of bullshit.”
