This is about healthcare. This is about the price of gasoline, and diesel. I bought my 1999 Dodge Ram with a Cummins because diesel was cheaper than regular. I’m glad I’m back to gasoline now. This is about the price of hot dogs and three dollar candy bars.
Coffee, well. I have years worth of green unroasted beans stocked up. But most people don’t.
Here is my very partisan advice. Something I try very hard not to give.
If you are from a district where your congressional representative votes for everything the current administration puts in front of them, go to their town hall meetings. If they are still brave enough to hold them. Write letters. Make calls. Send emails. Be polite. Vulgarity and profanity is the fast lane to the trash, physical and digital alike.
Don’t bother asking them to change their tune.
Just tell them to go home. Have a cigar. Get a drink. And start looking for another job.
Because they are done. Fired. Relieved of duty. No longer trusted. No longer wanted.
There are fifty ways to leave your lover. Pick one.
If you are a Republican who wants a Republican, fine. Find a conservative who doesn’t bow. Find someone honest enough to represent you rather than perform for an audience of one in Washington. Find someone who remembers that their job is the kitchen table not the gold curtains.
Maybe they wear an Independent label. Maybe they sound a little more middle of the road. Maybe they look a little more purple.
Midterms are coming.
The only message that matters between now and then is simple.

You work for us. And you’re fired.
