Melania did everything in her power to stop Donny, like purposefully bombing a convention speech with obvious plagiarism.

Michelle Obama rolled out "when they go low, we go high", which likely doomed humanity.

Kind of seems like a toss up to me.

Michelle Obama also tried to spare a bunch of Americans early mortality with childhood obesity, so that's another knock against her

Lol please have the GOP pull the self-own of having the CBO run the numbers on even a basic "Medicare for All" buy-in plan.

I mean replacing medicare/medicaid/fed employee/ACA-related subsidies with something that massively expands the Medicare/Medicaid risk pools is undoubtedly going to cut those costs, allowing people to buy in backs up the added cost of care for new enrollees, the only downside, I guess, would be that they'd have to enforce the "all or none" aspect of patient acceptance (like currently rear end in a top hat docs refuse medicaid patients but not medicare) and then kill the doc fix so that reimbursements can fall to reasonable levels. Those would probably piss off the shitters in the doc lobby something fierce but who knows, maybe the hospital lobby and large insurers looking to win the claims processing contracts will outweigh them. AARP would probably be all for an expansion of medicare benefits too.

The NRA would find a way to work guns into it like saying dat blood gummit gonna make gun deaths a public health issue if they're stuck with the costs of care (as though they weren't already paying for lots of GSW's :jerkbag:)

Various orgs like individual states Nurses Associations are for it.

But from what I've read, of course there are immediate downsides when you implement single-payer. Cutting out insurance companies for example will immediately zero out the Potemkin Village-like efforts by the various medical industries, doctors, and the govt to hide costs from consumers. It will necesitate higher taxers on citizens, and require the deletion of health care credits and deductions people have gotten very used to, and require an immeditate appropriation of hundreds of billions of dollars.

I personally believe it's the only solution to skyrocketing health care costs and the most humane and sensible path forward, but thinking that it will not take a lot of careful planning, costs, and a lot of mad people will just lead to another Vermont.

edit: California alone would have cost an infusion of 400 billion depending on which study you look at.

160 years ago literally on this day, Abe Lincoln heard about the Dred Scott case and, fully aware of the legal ramifications, said that's bullshit.

Today, Trump heard about the travel ban stay and, completely unaware of how anything of anything works, drank a coke and screamed yay as he poo poo himself.

Seriously, this whole "teach coal miners to code" attitude is dumb. You can teach someone C++, but if they don't know how to think logically, they're not actually coding.

I honestly can't think of the last time anyone I knew personally brought up Pruitt wrecking the EPA or DeVos burning education to the ground

It's all Russia all the time, maybe occasionally they'll talk healthcare or tax cuts

There's news about it, articles are written if you look for them. But, it's not sexy news like Russia. Plus, the influence of Russian money may actually lead to something; Congress is actually looking at it and that's a feat in itself. There's too much smoke to totally ignore it, even if it leads nowhere. And although we can complain about it, there's not a drat thing that can be done about Pruitt or DeVos wrecking the bureaucracy.
