I’ve been an active consumer since I started buying things on my own as a young boy many years ago. About 99% of the things I buy are at a set price. That means 1% of what I buy the price is negotiable. I can’t remember the last time I bought something and negotiated the price of the thing with the seller. I was probably on vacation in Costa Rica and talked down the seller from their asking price for a piece of their art on sale in an open air market.
Sometimes I buy vegetables and fruit from local farms at the weekly open air market in town. The prices are always listed and I’m buying for me and not a large crowd of people so there’s no reason to negotiate a lower price for a large purchase of vegetables. Expecting a set price is normal market behavior when buying in person in stores in U.S. The same applies when buying things on the internet. I buy things for me and not for a large number of people.
Politicians in Washington D.C. often have to negotiate the cost of a law they want to implement with the other side of the aisle. Their negotiations on a cost of putting a law into action effects US Citizens in US and US Citizens living around the world. Their negotiations effect everyone living in US including illegal immigrants. Currently in Washington D.C. the top order of the day every day until the Government reopens is the amount of money needed in the budget to reopen the Government for a specific amount of time.
Negotiations are ongoing. When the Government reopens it will come with a future date when new negotiations on a budget to fund the Government will require an agreement by both sides of the aisle. That’s what a budget is, a specific amount of money to spend in a specific amount of time.
Both sides of the aisle are on different sides of the argument regarding illegal immigrants. Republicans are saying Democrats want to provide free health care to illegal immigrants. It’s a lie. Democrats know that illegal immigrants in US are not eligible to receive health insurance.
While most US Citizens have a health care policy every US Citizen does not. Health care and health insurance are not the same. Care is not insurance and insurance is not care. Having health insurance is very important and it’s not the same as being cared for by a health care worker.
A health insurance policy is an agreement between a insurance company and health care workers and the individual who’s health insurance policy’s name is in. As an American I care for my fellow Americans. My care is not that of a health care worker. I write. I write about people, places and things.
US Citizens are American and not every American are a US Citizen. America reaches from the US State of Alaska in North America going through the foreign country of Canada to US all the way down to the foreign country of Costa Rica in Central America to the foreign country of Chile in South America. People from America are Americans. America is much larger than the country United States.
Where you’re from matters and why you’re in United States matters. Whether you were born in US or migrated here from a foreign country matters. How you came to US matters. Why you’re here matters and what you’re doing here matters. If you are in US illegally our forces are working to bring you to justice. Democrats and Republicans disagree on many topics, it seems to be in our nature to disagree with the party on the other side of the aisle. If you are a US Citizen research, learn, ask questions, get informed, pick a political party or be independent. It’s your choice, up to you to choose and your right as a US Citizen to support a candidate and vote for them.
