OK, I’m moving to a different running schedule for the month of May. I have to, my time is going to be pretty short for the first three weeks of the month. So I made up for missing out on Tuesday<\/a>. Foot is feeling good. No pain, discomfort, or worrying feelings with it. Even though I am still trying to stay off the outside of my foot for now. I was groggy, exhausted even. Between the bullshit politics happening the world, and US right now. All these fucking fascist assholes popping up. Also the fact I drank a bit during the United match last night…ha…I was pretty run down this morning. So I just took it easy and let my body dictate the pace.
\nSpeaking of politics, good news, someone apparently threw an egg at Marine LePen in France. It looks like it missed a bit and ended up only splashing her a bit, shame that. I think we need to throw more food at these people, rotten food of course, nothing fresh. That would be wasteful. But honestly, they’re trash and should be put out with the rest of the refuse. Garbage ideas are garbage ideas, that’s the way it is.
\nSpeaking of garbage ideas, those monstrous shitheads in the US passed their “Obamacare repeal” bill in the House. Now, the Senate and that turtle piece of shit already said they will write their own bill, but here’s what happened. The party who, for my entire life, has been harping about “How much will it cost?” Just basically passed a bill the same as the one they couldn’t even bring to a vote a couple weeks ago. How do I know, when the text of the bill isn’t even completed? Because what else could it be? Only a little more draconian, but they claim they put in an $8 billion “high risk pool” for people with pre-existing conditions. So basically, if you’ve already been seriously ill, you MIGHT be able to get coverage, it will still cost more, but you MAY get a small subsidy someday. We know the old bill would have seen 24 million people lose coverage. But we have no idea about this one, because they didn’t even wait for the Congressional Budget Office to look at the costs and the impact. The “How much will it cost” people have NO IDEA how much it’ll cost! How sickening is that?
\nSo they have shown, definitively, they do not care about costs, they do not care about impact, they do not care about what’s best for the American people, or any people. They care about their own bottom lines, they care about their investors…I’m sorry, did I say “investors?” I mean donors, but really at this point investor is a better term, isn’t it? Money needs to get the fuck out of politics. Politics needs to get the fuck out of politics. What do I mean? These people are so subscribed to their philosophy, which of course justifies their treatment of people. They don’t question anything about themselves, they don’t question the pain they cause. It’s the party line. It’s what they read in some Ayn Rand shitfest (her books are garbage). To them, they honestly believe poverty is the fault of the poor, because they’ve never even seen the real situation. They’ve been told by Rash Loofa, George Buck, Ronnie Raygun, what it’s like. They cling so desperately to the myth of the “Welfare Queen” the “Lazy Taker Drug Addict”. They believe it so much, they make up stories in their heads, about the time they witnessed it. It’s all a bunch of bullshit. How do I know they haven’t witnessed it, because it literally doesn’t exist. The very few instances of actual fraud in the system are hyped beyond hyperbole.
\nWe need to get to a place where our laws and rules come from a reasonable place. Where we understand that the old ways of thinking were wrong. There is almost nothing good, when it comes to governance and economy, to take from the past. The philosophies they are based off of are inherently flawed. How can you say that the United States Government was founded perfectly, when the same men writing “All men are created equal” were owning other men, women, and children? Obviously, there is a major flaw there in whatever they come up with. How can you reconcile the two ideas? And how can you reconcile that we still keep those human beings back, hold them down, because our system requires poverty, because wealth and poverty are relative. So we started a competition, and prohibited some people from participating, because we decided they weren’t people. Then when we they forced us to let\u00a0them start competing, we still put every road block in their way, and still do. Then the politicians and most of the people have the unmitigated gall to ask them, “Why can’t you catch up?”
\nThat’s what this healthcare vote is, for everyone who was delayed in starting, and everyone who simply can’t compete as well, it’s these millionaire assholes in Congress (check it, most of them are millionaires<\/a>) saying, “Well, fuck you if you can’t catch up.” Fuck them, seriously, just fuck them. Fuck them, fuck Donnie, fuck Pence. If they do know what they are doing, then they are evil, and shouldn’t be allowed to do it. If they don’t know what they are doing, then they are ignorant, and should not be allowed to do what they are doing. Not just healthcare, but everything. Racism, sexism, poverty, healthcare, foreign policy, it’s all such a clusterfuck. Both parties have their problems, but one side, the GOP, is MUCH worse. Do I agree with, or like either, no. Do I think we need to completely change the way we do things, yes. But we have to get rid of the worst of it now, and then hammer out the rest. Short of a full-on revolution, which will just create a vacuum which will bring in some other tyrant. History shows us that will be the case. But these anti-science, anti-humanity, anti-earth ignoramuses must go, and now.
