And they still get most everything they want; whereas when Dems are in charge they have to make up obscure reasons (example: Oh Noe!!! The Parlimentarian won’t let us do it!!!111) why they can’t pass popular legislation.

Those silly commies don’t understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.

More like: “My ancestors ate chickpeas … therefore, that falafel is mine!”

Don’t mess with librarians. They look mousey … but they take their jobs really seriously and will fuck your shit up.

Wasn’t there a story the other day claiming that Israel expected the US to pay for these camps?

Has that been debunked yet?

Any increase I’ve experienced in my pay has been completely surpassed by healthcare bills and inflation.

These are the types of cases where it pays to be lenient.

Without going deeply into the history & tactics of dealing with insurgencies: If the goal is social stability and reconciliation - it is best to be lenient the first time, but then be absolutely over-the-top brutal the second.

I see no downside whatsoever.

What’s heartbreaking about this is that they were supposed to be God’s chosen people.

If genocide and ethnic cleansing is what God wants, I’m really glad we killed him.

1. Acknowledging that the people who hurt you are living in your head and you’re ready to move on. A lot of folks are unable to even get this far.

2. Therapy.

3. Truly internalize the realization that the act of imagining scenarios where you get to hurt the people who hurt you is like drinking poison with the expectation that someone other than yourself will be made ill.

4. living a good life.

This journey is difficult and requires a lot of self-reflection and maturity. Best of luck to you.

Spend 30 days in jail vs Murder the locals.

Shocked that this is so rare it makes the news.

Gonna call shenanigans on this.

Bombs shatter organs - even when the victim isn’t in the blast-radius. Heck, just the sonic booms from fighter-jets can (and do) trigger miscarriages. Organs that are crushed, riddled with shrapnel, and probably close to the consistency of oatmeal are not worth the risks of retrieval.

Here’s the answer: No.

Medicare is Federally managed, Medicade is state-by-state. To qualify for Medicaid in most states you have to be at or near poverty levels of income - that’s around $11k to $15,000 a year maximum in order to qualify for it.

Heard. And that’s for people with health insurance and the ability to pay deductibles / co-pays for care in the first place. Everyone else is kinda fucked.

Puerto Rico is just the canary in the coal mine. The entire US healthcare system is on the brink of collapse.

There were more than enough Democrats in Congress in 2008 to make that happen.

There are more than enough Democrats now to make it enough of an issue that it becomes part of the public conversation.

There are more than enough Democrats now that could make an internal party rule that prohibits Democrats from ever lobbying for pharmaceutical or insurance companies.

However, the Democratic Party is far more motivated to kneecap actual healthcare reforms than actually implement what they say they believe in.

Love making complicated, beautiful cocktails for guests. Zero interest in being a bartender at a high-end cocktail bar until / unless I retire.

Democrats are just as committed to this for-profit driven healthcare system as Republicans are. They’re just a little bit more polite about it.

The guy with a reputation for not paying his attorneys is having trouble attracting good legal council?

Shocked. I’m shocked.
