Posted by linkmeister on 9 March 2017, 8:23 pm

We’ll see what happens, but Senator Murphy has it right.

This is simple stuff. Trump promised to cover everyone.

He is now pushing a bill that ends insurance for millions.

Promise broken.

    #bookstodon @bookstodon If you're looking for some interesting social history, read Ron Brownstein's "Rock Me on the Water." His thesis is that Los Angeles hit its peak influence on American culture in 1974. Music, TV, Film and Politics are the four areas he focuses on, with interviews of those who were there. Good book.https://www.amazon.com/Rock-Water-1974-Transformed-Television/dp/006289921X
