re: #224 RogueOne

Best case-scenario from an independent point of view is the left proposes raising taxes and cutting military, the right proposes medicaid/medicare reform and they meet somewhere in the middle. That would be the adult thing to do which means it’s probably not going to happen.

As if the Republicans will ever go along with cutting defense, despite the military brass wanting to get rid of a bunch of bloated, obsolete weapons programs that waste billions. Their genius plan was no more color copies at the Pentagon. =P

re: #228 Obdicut

Medicare/medicaid reform is pointless without actual addressing healthcare costs.

Yep. And that’s something that will be a much harder conversation to have.
