The Real timschochet 7,436 Posted 8 hours ago So the original demand from the Democrats was to make the ACA subsidies permanent. Now they are compromising, asking for a 1 year extension only. Thune says it’s a non-starter. Why? Why keep the government shut down over 1 year of spending? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real timschochet 7,436 Posted 7 hours ago Here is Townhall.Com, reacting to the Supreme Court stay on SNAP payments: “Good! SNAP is RIFE with fraud! Time for MASSIVE CHANGES to the program, and no more dessert cakes, sugary junk, luxury coffee, etc.” “Please sir,” said Oliver Twist, “May I have some more?” “MORE!” Mr. Bumble roared. “More, you ungrateful wretch!” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would a 1 year extension be a non-starter? This would end the shutdown and kick the can down the road for another year.

jerryskids 7,079 Posted 7 hours ago 3 minutes ago, The Real timschochet said: Nothing. You’re missing nothing. You responded to me as if you understood, then went back to this idiotic idea of giving an extension for a year, beyond the upcoming full budget. That's not a negotiation. That's a gift with money we don't have. If I were the Reps, I'd agree to extend the Covid ACA subsidies to the date they target for the full budget. And I would require the Dems to decide what of their boondoggle things they are willing to drop to pay to keep them going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
