(206,016 posts)You can suggest that in Ask the Admins. I agree that we need one. Even in a national emergency, they remain politically partisan and petty, regardless of the potentially disastrous effects on the American people. McConnell is cut from the same evil cloth as Trump.

(38,448 posts)It also shows that the Republican Party doesn't give a damn. But I think that this decision will be changed as the word gets out.

(3,131 posts)But lets wait and see how badly we can overwhelm our hospitals before we get serious about doing something.
If there are no ICU beds it wont matter why you need the bed. Everyone will be subject to whatever triage rules are followed.
The 2001 attacks created a two tier security system where first class travelers got a shorter line. I knew we were screwed when the country accepted that. Im not complaining about precheck by the way which had a legitimate argument.
Will we wind up with a two tier ICU system? Pay 10k a day in cash and you jump the line. I think people might balk at that but who knows.

(2,295 posts)Every extra death...
Every family that gets evicted...
Every car that gets repossessed...
Every extra day for someone in the hospital...
Every family that cannot eat because they cannot work or collect unemployment and chose medicine or rent over food...
Every one of these needs to be laid on McConnell, Ernst, and every Senator with an (R) in their screen shot.
Chuck and the Dem leadersneed a resolution calling for a vote and postponing recess so that every last one of these heartless bastards can show that they are more afraid of an angry tweet than the deaths of their constituents.

GEEZ!

(754 posts)Everyone in a state with an (R) running for Senate this year should know what to do.
After Nov we should take up the task of working on a constitutional amendment to follow the late John Dingell's recommendation, or something similar. I personally would like (instead) the Senate to look more like the way Germany elects the Bundestag, but there may be other ways worth considering.
