Same Bullshit. Tired and Familiar. Different Year. Same Intent and Intentional. Same Everything. Worse. More Cruel.
From November 19, 2017
—————————
Senator Risch,
Healthcare uncertainty has cost me thousands of dollars. More than all of my Social Security goes to my Health Insurance cost each month. And that is before deductibles and co pays. Your votes have condemned me to this financial condition. Your votes have given lie to the long-standing legislative promise that aging in our society would not be a crushing punishment.
I paid for my Social Security and Medicare across decades of labor and earnings. You seem to be comfortable and willing to take my hard earned financial comfort from me in my retirement. Why are you eager and determined to bankrupt and sicken this country’s middle class and poor citizens.
There is no doubt your tax bill is going to cost me thousands by eliminating deductions thus raising my tax costs. In addition, there are proposed percentage increases to my income tax rate. Also, I have deep concerns about trillions of dollars of debt you are willing to impose on us all with clearly unpopular bills.
In light of your consistent hypocrisy, how many more programs that have made people’s lives better will be cut and who will be sacrificed next to further your duplicity? You have made a 180 degree turn from the tax principles of your Republican Party and you should not be trusted to serve again.
—————————
The Republicans are hypocrites and have been pushing this bullshit and worse for many years. They are well rehearsed. I am performance ready.
