than later. not respond no intention of voting for this in the first place. i ve been talking to staff and texting. and there are outstanding questions for real people with real people s lives on the line. can they be so reckless that they sign into law something they all agree is bad and reckless and will essentially blow up insurance markets for millions of people? it seems incomprehensible they ll do that. but i ll not so sure they won t do that. the republican party is now a right wing extremist party dominated by the koch brothers ideology. and they do not want to see cuts to social security or medicare. they want to eliminate every federal program passed in the last 80 years designed to
