Partisanship is a powerful opiate. People feel invested in their “team.” The duopoly relies on this so they can continually win elections while doing as little as possible for the people.

No, being self indulgent and making politics a personal purity test rather than seeing the big picture and the necessity for finding compromise in a big tent to keep moving forward and protecting achievements makes things worse
Compromise? So, to you, just to be clear, allowing 3000 Americans - a significant percentage of whom are children - to die every month due to lack of health insurance is a necessary compromise? I reject that. With heavy prejudice.

I reject that number increasing amidst many other horrible dismantlings of long fought progress with the fight to keep pushing when there are better options. You want to burn the house down rather than keep fighting. That's "principle" to you.

No, that number hasn’t increased. It’s the CBO estimate based on studies that show that out of every 830 people who lack health insurance every year, 1 will die as a result. There are consistently about 28 million without health insurance under the ACA.
