I didn't have healthcare in 2024 either. And it was Democrats who caved agter the 2025 elections to allow the government to reopen without getting the Republicans to extend the subsidies. The Democrats also don't care if you can get healthcare and that's the problem.
Because getting the government closed and people not receiving snap was Republican goal all along, and keeping it closed newer would work in the first place.
Democrats have no power in current government because you didn't give it to them, and weird tricks of "we're going to destroy the government if you don't cave in" only works if keeping government alive is your goal. Right now it's just a mogging, not a negotiation, and it will stop being so only when Republicans will lost majority or when you all destroy your country killing yourself in the process, whatever comes first.
At this point, I want it to get worse. It isn't going to get better until all the comfortable trash becomes uncomfortable. Even that could be wrong, though. The whites destroyed the labor movement in the US because it was more important to them to continue being racist and upholding race based power structures than to actually achieve their goals against the state that was gunning them and their families down, sometimes in their homes. We ended up with very little and a fucking holiday that most of us that actually perform labor have to work while the class traitors above us get the day off.

Harris was going to solve everything! Just like Biden and Obama before her, can't you see! 🙄

She doesn't look very unhappy about it.
