Be careful what you wish for. We're less than a month into total Republican control of the presidency and both House and Senate, and certain, totally predictable things are evident.

Where money is involved, Republicans are doing exactly what Republicans do: catering to the wealthy, banks, Wall Street and preparing to make budget cuts that take away from those who are already mired in poverty. Cut Medicare? Who cares. Recipients aren't donors anyway.

The middle class has been hanging on by a thread, and Republican policy will completely destroy it. Admittedly, Obamacare is failing and Republicans have a golden opportunity to create a better plan. What has been proposed so far would massively increase the number of uninsured people, and the poorest of those would lose their doctor and resume going to the ER instead, placing enormous strain on hospitals and increasing overall costs to those who are insured.

Yes, Republicans won the election, but victory is getting what you want. Now we must face the reality: Do we want what we got?
