I love watching the debating styles of the US Senate.
Senator Democrat: I knew this one person who had X amount of children, X American struggle but managed to climb to the top! Finally managed to fulfill X American dream! Suddenly, this person got X horrible, yet ordinarily curable ailment, but had no healthcare! The person struggled and finally died because America is a third world country, and left their entire family alone. Why do Republicans want X person to die?
Senator Republican: I am here to defend Medicare. Which is a government run healthcare system. Because this healthcare bill wants to strip it down. Which is bad. Because it's government run.
Also, did I mention how many pages this bill is? It's a lot of pages. And it's heavy. And it's fiscally irrresponsable. Unlike Medicare. Or wait... Shit. Can I just go back to telling you how big this bill is? It's HUGE!
