BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

We spend twice as much per capita on health care as almost any nation on Earth. We pay the highest prescription drug prices in the world. 85 million Americans are uninsured or underinsured.
Republicans — pathetically — have nothing serious to say about the health care crisis.

It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

Republicans in Congress have now voted THIRTEEN times against extending the health care tax credits.
That’s THIRTEEN votes to allow premiums to spike for millions.
Americans are already speaking out across the country. They want action—and that momentum will only grow.

So frustrated to see The Atlantic publish this article - agree with Dr Salles 100%!
The recklessness of this article was not discussed enough, so I made a video about it covering many choices the writer made to fluff RFK Jr up and sanewash his positions, with a shout out to the outright lies and incorrect science.
