i saw a self-identifying socialist describe working-class brexit voters as privileged, entitled white men who were bitter about no longer deserving their accustomed standard of living because immigrants were willing to work harder for less

"The fact that so many of these diseases are asymptomatic, which few tell-tale signals, mean that men and women aren't getting into their doctor to be tested," said Bolan. "We need to get the word out that everyone needs a yearly checkup. And we need to re-educate physicians to look for signs of such 'ancient' diseases as syphilis."

it means that insurers have not participated in the Obamacare exchanges in good faith, so what we should do is give them more money so that they like us and want to be our friends

I mean, any Dem initiative to fix healthcare while the GOP holds both houses which has a prayer in hell of passing is gonna necessarily be bipartisan

the problem is that I feel a very strong compulsion to specifically not get bipartisan reform done

I mean, I don't know how #woke we can make Collins, Murkowski, McCain, and Paul, but I'm not optimistic

Amy is building up bipartisan bucks that she can spend in the capitol when a new bill comes along. She's nearly got 4,000 bp bucks, that's enough to lower Medicare age to 64 by 2022.
