If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

Calgary teacher Alicia Taylor says she brought it forward because it could help improve funding for public schools. #AbEd

That’s a wrap for me. Now I switch from MD to patient. A locum will cover my family medicine clinic while I have surgery and deal with whatever is next.

Post-menopausal women, speak with your MD if you bleed. Uterine cancer is suspected until proven otherwise. I hope sharing this helps others.
