re: #89 Joe Bacon ✅

Just a friendly reminder that Dumbya put Medicare D on the credit card and he made sure that Medicare is not allowed to bargain with pharmaceutical companies for lower prices—UNLIKE THE VA WHICH CAN DO THAT!

But didn’t he have a Republican House and Senate at the time — so getting any new Medicare benefits was a challenge? Nixon had a Democratic Congress so getting legislation that benefited the nation was relatively easy since they were the ones who made the decisions and pushed them through.
