I’m not arguing with u about a balanced budget. I’m just looking at it from the real world of politicians giving voters what they want. Hell most ppl want the dreamers to stay, most ppl think denying ppl for pre-existing medical conditions is bad. The majority vote based on their feelings, without any idea or care that things cost money and somewhere, somebody is going to pay the cost.

Agree. We are where we are because of the tyranny of the majority. If you took a poll on FR, I would bet most people would say pre-existing conditions MUST be a part of any “repeal and replace” bill, which is not a repeal in any sense of the word.

There’s a WORLD of difference between ‘what people want’ and a our, supposed, Constitutional Republic, let alone vs. ‘the law’.
Why not just do away w/ the facade as NONE of them are valid anymore (unless govt wants to make an example)? Neither consulted, adhered but selectively enforced.
As other have noted, you want to People to *care*?? Sent ‘em the bill (don’t forget to add the kids in too). Make EVERY SINGLE PERSON pay their share.
THEN, and only the, will you see the shift
