OK...Bunch of “Ifs” here…
If the Democrats manage to overcome the gerrymandering and take the House and get at least 50 Senate votes, what would you like to see them get done first? I have put some choices in the poll and you can chime in with anything else.
FWIW, I am torn between two things. I would like to see a big increase in infrastructure spending, in particular smart energy grids and solar power and put those jobs in places that are hit by coal dying as Hillary has said.
OTOH,
I think I think a public option is necessary for the ACA. It killed me when Liberman got rid of it in Senate. It would take the “competition” issue out of the way, and could really negotiate for lower prices. That is why the Health Insurance industry was so keen on it not passing. I also think it would be somehow possible to do something like this on reconciliation as long as it lowered deficit and not need 60 votes, though someone could correct me on that.
So I will vote public option in my own poll.
What say you?
Yes and I know we have to GOTV!
