"Stop Congress From Stealing"

Cory Gardner words, addressing the signing of The Great American Outdoor Act, Tuesday, 8-4-20, marker 25:25, T-18604

'Congress Stealing' are words we should not hear… but in light, more like in shadows of Dank Dark Deep Swampy State, particularly under Barry's reign, now raining down countless declas, surprise ends.

Stealing of and from America has has become the DC opulent way to wealth and riches. One only has to consider the ice-cream-treasure-chest of Fancy Nancy on her grand estate supported by what, 120, 140 millions of US dollars pilfered while she has been in office.

Conveniently T-18604 was preceded by T-18603 in which POTUS once again tells us about Big Pharma bellyaching over their, ALLEGED, loss because of the prescription drug pricing stabilizing reestablished by 4 EOs signed on 7-24-20, T-18194. It is hard to imagine Big Pharma big loss, unless they are incompetent business scum. As POTUS keeps reiterating, all Big Pharma has to do is renegotiate to find the new, single, honest price for all. As POTUS says, Medicare is the largest purchaser of prescription drugs. He simply demands America gets either the same price or the lower price should Big Pharma decide on price stratification. Americans will no longer subsidize socialized drug needs around the world.

Our system clearly has seller, Big Pharma, and buyers, Americans. None are forced to buy or use drugs, unless properly court ordered, and we as Americans buy out of our own pockets paying monies into Big Pharma pockets supposedly free of Government direct manipulations. Under Medicare. Americans having paid into the system through decades of lawful work, postponing benefit, have earned right to ban together to negotiate best price. Thus Medicare is so tasked. It is largely a free trade transactions with Government participating on the price issue to finalize best deals.

Apparently something far more extravagant played in our old med arena. It took 4 EOs to address the problems, EO's smacking State with hands in back pockets of manufactures and manufactures picking the pockets of Americans. Americans paid through nose and out ying-yang for meds, compared to rest of world. Congress did not pay, Big Pharma did not pay. However it would seem both reaped, bigly, thus belly aching. Congress bellyached, POTUS testifies, before the signing of the EOs. Big Pharma bellyaches after. POTUS summed all the ill-gotten-gains as billions and billions. Those who bellyache simply cry over the loss of theft. Big Pharma outs itself, stripped of kickback. 

But I suspect nothing is that simple, not in the scope of 'billions and billions'. Clearly many bucks ran the laundry shoots of DC, going in dirty, unseen, coming out clean and smelling fresh daisy, billions and billions, year after year. I'd suggest neither Congress, nor DC, nor Big Pharma, nor all three combined are big enough to turn all that filth into daisies. Billions and billions, year after year, is more than enough to grease all the palms, pass out handsome kickbacks and still leave some very huge sum. Billions and billions, year after year, how can any say it is not so. So where did all that humongous pile go, year after year?

Perhaps we should ask MSM, you know Middle Storytelling Men, Women too. After all, they are the reputed DC insiders, supposedly knowing it all. Maybe they know where all the piles go at the end of the laundry shoot, year by year, month by month, week by week. Seems quite regular, like popping pills or getting paid. Is that the spreading of these piles? But, at last, we should not expect MSM to chase truth in swampy backrooms, for nothing. Is it their job to uncover DC deceit in the receipts? No, we should not expect MSM to do anything, for nothing. Perhaps since Americans will be saving on meds, we can pay MSM to uncover the old cover-up. Do you think if we all pooled together our med savings, we could buy MSM to dig into DC corruption? Might it be enough for MSM to tell the truth? I mean, obviously somebody pays them handsomely to tell lies, fabricate sources, fake news stories, overlook truth. No goodness of any heart creates monstrous falsehoods. That's a job for huge sums. Maybe in the future we will be able to buy the truth out of MSM, if we pool our med savings. Billions and billions taken wrongly. Yes, I believe billions and billions just might turn all of MSM heads to a different direction. What do you think?

I don't know, I just do not know.

I certainly notice of late, POTUS pressers get much better questions of late. What do you think?
