Stuck In The Middle with No One to Listen.
I have 2 democratic senators in a Republican Senate majority. I have one republican representative in a Democratic House majority.
That leaves me NO VOICE in the government. Not one.
Why would the Republican Senate care that we seniors will lose our lower cost mail order medication programs if Trump will not save the US Postal service?
Why would a Democratic House care if immigrants are taking our jobs & our medical assistance? Or how irresponsible it is to jump-start mail-in-v****g without adequate pr********n? Without all v***r r**********n lists
being current?
The parties' infighting is harming we citizens.
It has to #STOP !!

It most definitely needs to stop.
And the only force needed to reckon with this abuse of power, is we the people.
Both parties are abusing their privileges and we should be holding their feet to the fire.

No voice? You don't seem to understand our government as set out in the Constitution. The Constitution does not provide for a majority rule government, in fact, it doesn't authorize a two party system, indeed, it doesn't authorize party's at all.
The power resides with the people, and in a representative republic, the people select folks to represent their will at every level of government. Those representative are Constitutionally bound to represent their constituents.............................AND NO ONE ELSE. When one party or the other ( strike one ) has a majority, and the representatives in that party represent the party instead of ALL of their constituents ( strike two ) and the party in the majority ignores everyone not of their party ( strike three ), everyone loses.................including the folks claiming membership in those party's.
Here are some facts ( check them yourself ):
Democrats and republicans combined, only make up 42% of the e*****rate, therefor - no matter which party gains control of which branch of government............................58% of the e*****rate literally have no voice. Who speaks for them? Their representatives are supposed to, but they don't, they only represent the citizens belonging to the same party they do. That is patently un American and Un Consitutional.
So in short.........................stop whining.

Agree. The Republicans in Congress are nothing to heap praises on, but the Democrats have completely gone over to the bad side and actually do little today to hide their plans for America and Americans. I am angry at one of my state's Republican senators because he was part of the group, a couple of months ago, wanting to use unused VISAs (about 100,000) to bring in foreign workers, specifically nurses, doctors, etc, in the medical field, totally ignoring the fact that many Americans in the medical field had lost their jobs because of medical practices closing or cut way back or hospitals not being overwhelmed with v***s cases as expected. I am really upset about this and now consider him a t*****r to be watched closely. But he has no republican opposition this time and I refuse to v**e for a democrat because they have gone bonkers.
