Rufus,
Could/Would you use your other hat that belongs to Martin and possibly outline a "national health system" that would work better than the system we now have and tell us how it would be better? I do realize that we do not have a true national health system at this time but what we have has worked pretty well for me and my family. Maybe a separate topic would be better for this. Also I would hope this could be done without becoming a political topic.

Or if you think best you can, of course, ignore this.

I won't waste my time trying since I already know it will almost certainly turn into a political topic.

But we're rounding the corner and it'll all go away in next week, and no, we'll just give up and watch it all burn.

It's not going away next week even if Biden Wins Which I expect to happen. The liberal media will be pounding the beat for the next year that every failure under Biden will be Trumps fault. And all you liberals on MTJ will agree with it 100%

That was of course just a wee bit of sarcasm; it all went away before Easter, remember?

I'm unconvinced of Biden winning. Expectations 4 years ago were high and sure, and wrong.

You must not be a betting man because you'd lose that one big time. I'm pretty critical of failure regardless of the source. I've not seen a more concerted effort to fail and deliberately do the wrong thing during an election year yet. It's been impressive in that sense.

And, unless Biden also gets both houses of Congress, he won't get anything done. A split congress is paralysis. And it will take years to undo the damage of the last 1 let along the last 4. Then again, Trump has set all sorts of precedents for abuse of presidential powers so maybe that's not true either.

Trump has done a great job of pointing out what is wrong with government. We need major changes across the board.

Yes Yes Yes... Pelosi and Schumer were the 2 biggest obstacle's to meaningful immigration reform for this country and the immigrants. He tried to work with them several times. What a Joke those 2 are.

What did those 2 do for their country the last 3 years

I feel they should go also. They're working on pure emotion ego and hate. Nothing will get done.

Everybody states that and nobody actually does any changes; drain the swamp was a joke as Trump just restocked with more malignant and malicious reptiles that just made everything worse.
