My biggest gripe in life currently is healthcare costs. Not much of an issue for me when I was younger, thankfully, but as I get older its fucking criminal how much this shit costs for me and my family.

I'm sure healthcare is very expensive for you and your cat.

Woah woah woah buster. Speak for yourself and you won't look like such a complete jackass. I am extremely grateful for everything I am fortunate enough to have and give thanks for it on a daily basis.

I'm surprised Trump hasn't just started a push to legalize weed. A good portion of the Bernie crew is there for this one issue

I agree entirely, but we know that ain't ever going to happen.

How is taking trillions in taxpayer money and giving it to banks and corporations not socialism? Unless your arguing it's fascism, then I would agree.
