Pretty sure Trump couldn’t give a shit about the people who happen to live in Greenland. He’ll just evict them.

Been saying 0 every hour for a while now. Format of your source changed?

Thanks! Interesting to read about why these attempts failed, despite seriously motivated supporters.

Hey, Mark, how about you describe what a good system looks like. Then assume we have some small percentage of the population gets their health care from this system. Maybe the youngest?

Than grow it a little each year. Can we get to full coverage over twenty years or so?

Oh dear, how awkward...the guy who coined the term "American Dream" gave the last word of his book to a young immigrant girl & said the main lesson of his day was that people who'd amassed great wealth were not "the wisest leader to follow nor the best fitted to propound a sane philosophy of life."

Yeah, there's lots of mass stupidity in social media. So far as I can tell, many think you must be evil/wrong because you're rich.

These are probably the same people who think Musk, because he's an immature, asshole, white supremacist can't also be an amazing entrepreneur and rocket engineer.
