When my health insurance stopped covering insanely expensive meds that literally kept me out of the hospital, my GI took every sample bottle she could find in the city (called other docs too) and filled up a Ralph's bag with it and dropped it off at my house.

It's not the docs.
Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.

I can't be alone in my belief that you shouldn't be able to switch parties after getting elected. Take cash from Dems, get elected and then switch parties. Blows my mind that this is legal.

Also makes me wonder why Dems don't do that instead of wasting money inventing 'lefty Joe Rogan'.
It would be cool if there were actual people out there who wanted to legislate and govern because they thought it was important to stand up for principles and not just using the position as a good hustle for cash and to settle personal grievances that cost American lives and livelihoods
BREAKING: Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have cast decisive votes against Biden's NLRB nominee. This means the Democrats will not secure control of the national labor regulator through 2026. These two Senators effectively handed Trump control of the board when his term begins.

Elon and Don, who were born into wealth and have never known hardship, are now ready to strip away decency, health, peace, and resources from everyone else for sport.

Get mad, get really mad.
