She is an amazing person. She deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for her activism to stop the genocide in Gaza.

Marc, please post update about what DeSantis is doing now. I am worried about gerrymandering our Blue FL District 22.

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

We must prioritize. I pick shutdown & Epstein for starters.

Lots of Floridians own guns. There is never a reason to carry a gun into Publix. This is insane.

Also ask him how he is able to receive his salary without benefit of a bank account. Where does he receive , keep, & disburse household monies?

I don't know if their treachery is actually treason. But it is illegal, immoral, unjust, indecent.

Investigate, indict, prosecute, and lock them up. Go after their enablers, too.

Oh, recover all ill-gotten profits, like that crypto shit.

I cannot find words to describe how disgusting Pam Bondi's behavior has been. She is a disgrace and a menace. Her fellow Cabinet members are just as bad.

I got nothing about fixing the housing squeeze, but we CAN do something about healthcare.

Americans spend annual $1.46 trillion on health premiums.
Of that, $219billion was profit. We need to transport profit into actual care. Cost would go down by at least 10%.

This is only one part of reform.

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

Do it!

Migration would have to be done in stages.

There would still be actuary, claims, IT, medical management and many more jobs to replace the private jobs eliminated. The profit mess that has collapsed, anyway.

Who among us loves & wants to keep our United, Humana, CIGNA, etc policies?

By standardizing premiums & payments (fee schedule), there is stability. By including everyone, it assures access. Eliminating 15% profit, we'd ANNUALLY save:

$219 billion saved

That amount can be used for care, not profits.

Private carriers would be forced to undergo massive, unwanted upheaval.

Let do what most top countries worldwide are doing. A nonprofit, universal coverage, *private sector* delivery system, managed by Medicare.

Not "Socialized Medicine..."

I paid Medicare tax since 18. I now pay Medicare premium. My coverage is better than any employer insurance ever provided.

NY Times? Did you write the headline caption that has been posted?
"Sidestepped?"
Really?
