    Which is why I beleive companies making medical hardware should be forced to open source the firmware and software as well as document how the hardware works and have it be open to the public in a read only mode while qualified people can make updates to the software and firmware

      That requires a functional Congress, which is really only achieved by getting rid of the GOP disease in all three branches.

          Well, another party that is willing to actually govern is welcome to stand up for itself and replace the GOP.

          Until that happens, we have the GOP, a party that is ran by gaslighting, obstructionism, and projection, who’s real purpose has been laid bare for decades: To take our government, and “reduce it to the size where [they] can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub”. And the Democrats, a party that has its own flaws, but actually wants to enact laws and run the country.

          One of these parties wants to actively destroy our government, and one of them doesn’t.
