It was the Rs who derisively coined the term Obamacare for the ACA but, to their chagrin, it turned into a plus. Seeing that, ACA started getting used more frequently and is why many magas say “I don’t have Obamacare, I have ACA coverage.” 🙄

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.

According to Donald Trump, nursing isn't a professional degree.
The bottom line? The entire nation, including Illinois, needs more nurses — this decision makes it even harder than ever for them to get the support they need.
