I mean, world peace, danny thomas' kiddie horse spittle, universal coverage - these are causes I can get a visceral charge from. Dual coverage for disabled workers above 65 is just... Idunno... not something that I can think of a slogan for?
65 - still alive - need dual coverage and that's no jive?
Hell, "We're here, we're queer, and we're not going shopping" has a better ring. I could see myself getting behind that - "**** you, JC Penney - I'm boycottin' with the fairies! You shouldn't have done... whatever!" But getting excited over "65 - still alive - need dual coverage and that's no jive?" Not while going home and rubbing one out is still an option.
Still, I wish you well in this particular assault on the Grail, Knight that goes shoog. I mean, everyone needs a raison d'etre, right?
This will change.
I have stopped the emails and tweets so much and now am printing letters to mail to Senators, Congressmen, and even Trump about this forgotten group.
I think both sides will agree they deserve to keep on with their dual coverage past 65 without more stringent limits on income.
I am not a glamorous person. But I may get the most results of anyone who posts here just for tackling this one unglamorous thing.
Let's see.
