Why? The GOP senate wrote the CR either zero input from Dems and Dems should just go along ?
Also, the GOP senate can bypass the filibuster if they want, just like they did 2 1/2 weeks ago to appoint 100 judges.
The Republican Government Shutdown is theirs and their plan. They want it.

Ironically, our schools for military families have become as good as the top private schools. It took a ten year overhaul and good funding, but it proves that our public schools could be top notch if we agreed on that.

How could the government shutdown end? Here are 4 scenarios — CNN
The government shutdown is barreling forward, with few signs of a resolution over the weekend.
And once again, the media fails to report on the 5th option. GOP Senate majority vote on a filibuster rule carve out to pass the CR that had NO INPUT FROM DEMS. They did this for 100 judges weeks ago. They can do it here, but they WANT THE SHUTDOWN.
Don’t fall for the media lies and omissions!

Researcher of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) found that long COVID uses the same immune problems as CIRS. Having CIRS might be a prerequisite for long COVID.

Agreed, I have watched each piece of this put into place with no effective reversal. Fairness in Reporting Act, Minimum Wage, Redlining (Biden stopped that one), Citizens United, gerrymandering (before 2020!), and so much more.
We have arrived where we were headed for 50 years.

using a three part committee: government, healthcare providers, and public members. It would pay more than Medicare and less than current prices. No guessing about fees, they are all published.
It is estimated to cost 10’s of millions less than the current plan.

New Mexico has been working to create this at a state level. It is similar to Germany where 100% are insured, 90% use the public, 10% pay for private. Premiums are 14% of your paycheck split with your employer and have a maximum. Unemployed people are still insured.
The NM plan also sets prices

I think it will take a few years of pain, but the electorate WILL rise up and overthrow this regime.
Too many people still feel comfortable and think it doesn’t affect them.

I don’t think they are real. I just want to see what the demonic sexual performance looks like. I bet it’s entertaining.
Those 80’ satanic metal bands had a lot of fun with the theme, making it up as they went along.

Given the low quality of life in many Republican states that never improves, I think they are numb to it.

they did something similar and had shelterless people volunteer for a shelter program that over a year housed them, gave them job skills, glasses, haircuts, medical, dental and social services.
Students provided most of the services.
Haven for Hope was the program

Addressing poverty and inequality is what makes places safer. Poor people are less stressed and rich people in such societies are less greedy and more compassionate.

This is where the General Strikes can force their had. Once enough people are frustrated enough, whole workforces need to stay home and hobble the cities, hobble the economy.
