Sorry, I probably wasn’t clear. I meant the 200% tariff will result in Americans paying even more for medical care - while I pay $15-$20 for a prescription

Just for comparison sake. My dexamphetamine is $15 for 100 tablets. My antidepressant is $20 a month

I count the #uglydogs as part of that support system, Mac. Including you!

Now my other brother is homeless, because he was dependant on mum. But he’s also a drug addict who doesn’t want help.
Shit sucks, Mac. Sometimes everything is too hard and hiding is easy.
But I’ve got an awesome husband and the two best dogs on the planet.
And some really, really good friends. 🩷
