    I’m sorry to vent at you. It wasn’t really meant to be directed at you. I’m just very frustrated.

    My girlfriend is a diabetic, and insulin is indeed more affordable. It still costs her about $120 a month for something that costs pennies to produce.

    My real point though, is that it doesn’t matter who is in power. Things are getting dramatically worse every year no matter who is in the White House.

    The Supreme Court is obviously completely fucked. They literally made it legal for them to be bribed. And they are not elected by citizens, and also have a lifetime appointment.

    There is nothing that we as citizens can legally do to curb their power. We are quite literally at their mercy, and they are not being merciful.

    And I haven’t even touched on our actual real long-term problems.
