I'm certain the calm voices in the room were certain it would all blow over soon, and the glorious Weimar Republic would emerge from the rubble caused by their obviously stupid and incompetent opponents who were simply taking advantage of temporary public outrage.
"Until the end of World War II in Europe in 1945, the Nazis governed Germany under the pretense that all the extraordinary measures and laws they implemented were constitutional; notably, there was never an attempt to replace or substantially amend the Weimar Constitution. Nevertheless, Hitler's seizure of power (Machtergreifung) had effectively ended the republic, replacing its constitutional framework with Führerprinzip, the principle that 'the Führer's word is above all written law.' ". - Wikipedia

I despise the 2-party system that set us up to knock us down for the billionaire class.

A very chilling but true post. I just can't get my head around being told "Sorry, you're not covered & are going to die from a curable condition".
I suppose if someone was gonna die anyway, taking out the health insurance CEO ultimately responsible for their demise, might give a crumb of comfort.
It'll be interesting to see how #America reacts from here. Rarely have I seen such unanimity amongst #Yanks on a particular subject. Just why did they mostly vote for #Trump? Bizarre! 🤷🏾♂️
