B B posted:Pretty much all of the Republicans I know, including my evangelical Christian family in central Virginia that has never voted for Democrats, disapprove of the plan because it would have made things worse. That's anecdotal, of course, but we've reached a point where a majority of Americans think it's the responsibility of government to provide health care: This graphic owns, in that you can specifically see the effect of right wing propaganda. The opinions spiked hard during the ACA debates and passage, and again during the 2012 election season... without propagandists telling people that healthcare IS NOT A RIGHT or that Healthcare SHOULD NOT BE PROVIDED BY THE GOVERNMENT, people naturally drift back to believing the opposite.

Chilichimp posted:It's dumb as poo poo, the VA should just offer some kind of Cadillac Medicare coverage to all veterans and let them seek medical help at whatever caregiver is convenient to them. Assign some loving captain and SFC to a few major hospitals to act as VA liaison officers, so the vets have a POC for info/complaints relating to their VA medicare plans. Run the billing through some loving empty office at the Pentagon with a bunch of Mabels working the no doubt ANCIENT accounting software. Because this would cost a tremendous amount of money. The whole reason the VA treats people, who are an astronomically high-risk group compared to the general population, at government-owned hospitals is to provide treatment at a low cost subsidized by taxpayers.

Zero_Grade posted:The VA has been working on teleconferencing for a while (I knew people trying to get it off the ground in my field while I worked there), but yeah there are a number of significant hurdles, both technical and otherwise, to overcome to make it really viable for widespread use. If everything does get solved to a reasonable extent, it would be a very useful tool to have available. It was The Field blog at ruralvotes.com, IIRC Nate Silver actually got his start posting in their comments as Poblano.

What it will probably be is that there's a satalite office set up with nursing staff who perform vitals and the physical exam and the teleconference is done at a remote location. It doesn't have to be in the same state. It can improve access for specialties that the physical exam can be performed by someone not a specialist, like a nurse taking a high resolution picture of a rash for a dermatologist to look at. It won't solve all the problems but it's an incremental step at improving access.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Because this would cost a tremendous amount of money. Yeah, but the result is lower quality and availability of care, which is loving tragic. The famous shoe-string budget of the US military would really suffer providing single-payer care for veterans, I'm sure.

My wife has experience with running group health education sessions and has seen little difference in results between teleconference and in person sessions. She looked into doing one on one telehealth stuff and the biggest stumbling block is that you have to be credentialed in every state your patients live in. Then again she's a Dietitian and that's a lot more compatible with telehealth than other things.

This is the same FBI that as a matter of policy doesn't record interrogations so that it becomes the FBI agent's word versus yours.

The guy was specialized in tracking botnets, and Kronos was a banking botnet that he reported on multiple times. So some white hats are wondering if the FBI nabbed him just by association, but others are saying that there are some weird coincidences lining up with his reporting that would make sense if he authored it. At this point in time it is a wait and see game.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Twitter is very, very stupid. Again I've said it in the thread before but I absolutely loathe twitter and always have and consider it the worst technological development of the century by far. I initially thought it would just dumb down internet conversations with it's 140 character limit which it did significantly but I wasn't prepared for it to full on turn the internet into a shitposting hive of perpetual bitching and feuding over the stupidest poo poo imaginable within a generation that now bleeds back into the rest of the internet and even the greater public conversation. I mean hell it gave us Donald Trump who is basically a glorified internet troll that has enabled twitter trolls to shitpost the internet even more than they already did. The uptick in most of the internet's message boards being an absolute shitpile overly concerned with things like identity politics since 2015 is noticeable. It's like that's the greatest issue facing today's youth too somehow, where you identify on the gender and political scale. The whole conversation of liberal vs conservative idealogies has also been dumbed down considerably as well to screaming and insult label hurling matches and it's like the very idea of a center where the two can meet on any issue isn't even in the conversation. gently caress the other side basically. The problem is I don't see how we go back short of Twitter going bankrupt and or shutting down which is a day I would gleefully greet but sadly it's too integrated into our increasingly lovely society to ever happen. At least there's SA and it's pay wall I suppose.

World leaders should not have the expectation of secrecy when discussing policy matters. The Susan Rice thing is relevant and pertinent public information. Lawfare is right. Diplomacy requires the ability to talk privately and losing that ability makes it more difficult to conduct diplomacy which is a bad thing.

One of the reasons russian money is everywhere is us spending the years after the collapse of the Soviet Union helping the current oligarchic regime launder it's money through US banking and real estate. Not the only reason. But a big one.
