Democrats dig in on health care demands with government shutdown days away

Does anyone care if the government shuts down?  This should be another issue that brings us all together.

Leftists should be happy because whatever Trump is doing, less of it will get done.  The Right should be happy because Trump will tell a bunch of non-essential government employees to not bother coming back to work when this is settled.

The Democrats want to pour more money into Obamacare.  Government tampers with the healthcare system, and it always gets worse.

Now that I’m on Medicare, I pay less, but a lot of people are getting paid more.  I don’t know how it works, but I keep getting calls from companies that want to help me out.  The sales reps are upbeat, and sound like I should be excited too.

We are excited to come out to do a home wellness visit!  You get a free $50 gift card!

No thanks.  That sounds nice, but I have plenty of gift cards.  Get a warrant.

With your CPAP serial number and model number, and we can monitor your sleep patterns at no cost to you!  The CPAP machine can tell us what supplies you need, and we will send them out!

Right, like I want you watching me sleep.

This is Cologuard, we’d like send you a colon screening kit.  Each kit has a little bucket to shit in and some popsicle sticks to chop up your turds.

A free bucket sounded pretty good, but apparently I’m supposed to send the bucket back after I do my dirty business.

The government does some important work, but Democrats don’t like those guys.  They are worried about the slapdicks, bootlicks and goldbricks. 

Shut down the government, and see if anyone cares.
