‘We are literally two adults who have worked our entire lives — and we cannot get insurance anywhere,’ one retiree tells Rhian Lubin, as she and her husband face more than a tenfold premium increase
One voter, Shirley Dum, said it is the first time in her life she has faced the life-or-death choice of voting for Democrats. “It’s common knowledge here, we’ve seen people drop dead right at the booth for voting wrong. But I will not be able to afford healthcare for my 4 unemployed single mid-30s male children at these prices. It’s scary, yes, but a mother has to sacrifice for her children.”
It’s unclear how many Republicans will actually change their vote. We caught up with Shirley a week later and she told us she had voted by mail that morning, for Republicans.
It is good to remember that people can change, regardless of the insanity going on online. Hopefully we have some good candidates during the midterms, but the NY Mayoral race has given me a little bit of hope.
Methinks Ms “Dum,” mother of 4 unemployed, unmarried, 30-something men, who still depend on her for health insurance, might have been trolling the interviewer.
These people literally believe in angels and spirits exacting revenge for various crimes against whatever stupid shit they are told to believe. Don’t underestimate how fucking stupid Republicans can be.

Are you guys arguing about a fictitious, satirical character and her not-real children?
You’re like republicans arguing about welfare queens
Shirley Dum is my aunt’s sister.
Its OK that you don’t understand how humans interact, maybe just fuck off?
It’s called a joke and it’s from the reality of I made it up
Wow, that was beautiful
