(6,145 posts)If it was 60% of the popular vote (enough for a filibuster), I'd say reasonable majority. But it wasn't 60%. If it was 75% I'd give you VAST majority.
I can give you SIMPLE majority, but that's about it. Obama did not win the popular vote by a landslide.

(8,223 posts)that the savings come from allowing medicare to negotiate drug prices (like Canada). It is not actually a cut in benefits in that the people get the same meds, we just pay less for them. It is just like the savings that come from removing 716 billion of excess insurance company profits from the system. The benefits are the same, just insurance companies make less money providing them.

(478 posts)Since the Republican want to cut Medicare/Medicaid I think we should cut both but cut them just for the people who voted Republican after all if the Republican want it cut so bad then they should be the ones who get cut. Lets see how that fly with the GOP voters. LOL

(6,145 posts)to cut medicare and medicaid if we had collective bargaining on prescription drugs?
I think that's a fair trade.

(6,119 posts)When Republicans win an election, Democrats must completely capitulate because "elections have consequences"
however when Democrats win it is the Democrats who must compromise in the "spirit of bipartisanship"
GOP = party of hypocrisy, party of obstructionism, and errand boys for the ultra-rich . . .
Their time of any relevance is quickly disappearing.
