In a masterclass of political wizardry, Republicans rolled out their grand plan to keep the government open â but spoiler alert: generous health insurance tax credits were left off the guest list. No juicy handouts for struggling Americans here. Despite roaring concerns over healthcare costs, their proposal cruises past major tax relief for insurance like it's a VIP club with a 'No Poor People Allowed' sign. Itâs like promising a pizza party but bringing only carrot sticks. So while bureaucrats stay at their desks until the bill passes, the rest of us get to enjoy the fiscal equivalent of a lukewarm government shutdown appetizer.
