Snark Level: RED ALERT.

Deploying full sass-cannon.

Liberals, Healthcare, Single payer for everyone. Centrist, Healthcare, Insurance with copays and deductibles. Conservatives: Healthcare? You sound like a communist. Here’s some fear, a flag, the pledge. And a billionaire tax cut.

Let’s review the great American

ping-pong match of the last 50 years:

Conservative president takes office:

We’re slashing taxes for the ultra-rich because trickle-down is totally a real thing, trust us.

Economy crashes like a Ford Pinto in reverse.

Surprise! No jobs, more debt, and somehow

fewer bridges than before.

Centrist president wins:

Okay, deep breath. Let’s fix this dumpster fire again.

They pass bills to save the economy, fund schools, and give grandma insulin.

Conservatives scream “TYRANNY!” because someone said “climate change” out loud.

Then they win back Congress with slogans

like “God, Guns, Gasoline!”

Rinse, repeat.

Meanwhile:

The deficit? Sky high.

The rich? Hiding money in offshore bank accounts.

You? Still trying to afford a dentist.

Snarky Baby Marky says:

Hope votes, fear sells.

And conservatives are running the world’s most profitable doomsday Multi-Level Marketing.

Step 1: Scare the hell out of you.

Step 2: Blame the centrist Democrats because there are no liberals in Congress at least not since the sixties when they were Republicans.

Step 3: Profit.

America, it’s time to upgrade from crash-test dummies to conscious voters.

Let’s stop rebooting the same failed sitcom where the billionaire always wins and the poor never get healthcare.
