Then give me everything I paid in back

That way if my future gets fucked itll be entirely my fault... 

They want Social Security gutted and gone.... 

Then give me and the people who have paid anything in back our money.... 

But we know that wont happen... 

We'll get some "its going to be used to better support America" type excuse which is just slang for "We took your money you paid in and pocketed it and funneled it to other shady investments" 

Anything to keep from having to give it back.... 

In an attempt to privatize everything.... 

Granted I will give you this after looking into it alot of private stuff tends to have better benefits and pay outs.... 

PROBLEM 

ITS EXPENSIVE AND MOST PEOPLE CANT AFFORD IT

Speaking of grills 

You could grill a flank steak on Gaetz fat ass forehead... 

And this goes back to what I said before. 

 

The money we're giving Ukraine to defend themselves against Putin could have been  used here I have said that M A N Y times... to fund projects that would assist the American quality of living

Affordable Health Care 

Homeless Aid 

Infastructure

Etc 

But problem is it would never get used because a certain group is mad so as a consequence we just get fucked because they cant have their way... 

If a bill got put forward right now to put 1.4 billion towards building new affordable homes/apartments it wouldnt pass.... 

Because we'd get some lecture about Democrats "to much pork in the bill" because Republicans dont want to be cooperative... 

Want to put an end to everything but have no solution... 

No replacement plans.... 

No nothing... 

Just like Obamacare.... 

They Hated it and wanted it gone... 

But had nothing,no plans to replace it.... 

Just like they wanna do to Social Security gut it and cut it.... 

But keep the money that WE paid in... 

No replacement or solution....

Its like quitting a job you dont quit a job without having another one lined up because then you're jobless and that cam lead to a bunch of other problems.... atleast thats how I was taught to look at it...  

But I guess in their case that logic can fuck all because hey most of them come from money or they are rich so it doesnt matter what happens to the middle and lower class that have to bust their ass to get what they can...

So your answer is because it would never get used here ($$ the way the dems want...I added that part) go dump our US tax dollars in one of the most corrupt governments in the world without any accounting in place in another proxy war without a clearly defined exit plan. Just want to make sure I understand your post.

Republican lawmakers, once again, have decided to stick it to the people.  They stopped the $35 cap on the cost of insulin

So, what exactly went into the determination of the $35 cap?   Be sure to include objective evidence such as cost accounting analysis from companies involved in providing insulin to the American public. Be sure to show the full cost necessary to get the insulin to users and make the allowance for whatever profit margin is necessary for those companies to to continue to engage in the business.  
 

While you’re at it, maybe show us the likely availability of insulin over the next 5 years provided a $35 dollar cap was in place.  A simple line chart would be acceptable. 
 

You might find that removing the $35 cap might prevent a lot of deaths.

Now, I’m not saying that Big Pharma isn’t making good profits on insulin, but the unit cost after all is said and done, needs to be somewhere beyond the $35 pipe dream, and the lofty costs that are often quoted, some times unabashedly embellished.

So your in favor of funding a war

supplying them with weapons does nothings but cause more causalities, your absolutely Bonkers to think Ukrainine has any chance against russia, if putin really wanted, Ukraine would be blown off the map, he’s literally just toying with Ukraine, they need to have a giant sit down with all these leaders and talk and figure it out, cause there is 0 chance Ukraine is gonna end this war by having weapons and killing people

If you don't understand sending money to ukraine then you need help. I don't like it being able to pass so quickly ahead of problems in america but I understand it. 

At the very least its to show our enemies our military and financial power. Like it was stated before we are helping a country fight for their freedom. That's supposed to be one of the core beliefs of america. It has cost america in the past but our military leaders see it's better for a country to fight with their own people than send american troops in. 

As far as america goes some of the biggest problems are the companies and CEOs screwing over the middle and lower class. Thanks politicians mainly republicans allowing it and getting in on robbing the American. Once politicians were allowed to collect money from businesses and the rich to run for office things went down the drain. The next thing was the outsourcing of jobs with no regulations. You'll hear that outsourcing jobs keeps the prices low but that doesn't work when CEOs and business don't give a damn about low prices. That's the problem with capitalism the more you screw people over the more you are rewarded.

My question is do any Republicans care about this?  

This is a sincere question.  

Republicans strip $35 insulin price cap from Democrats' bill -- but insist Senate rules are to blame - ABC News (go.com)

Why Did Republicans Vote Against the Insulin Cap? (marketrealist.com)

Republicans Force Removal of Insulin Cap for Private Insurers - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

Read the entire bill for once & then you will understand.
