The one thing I can say with certainty is that nobody likes this and I'm not surprised once again leadership has found a way to appeal to absolutely nobody once again

im not sure what youre talking about because this 100% appeals to economically conservative but socially liberal millionaires the democrats have been pandering to since carter

Right now I'm not really doing anything except going to a fundraiser every once in a while or having sporadic meetings (this is almost entirely in the context of VA dems). It's hard for me to care anymore because I don't have any real power

You can be 100% on the neoliberal consensus train and still recognize it's a lovely losing slogan

the "we have a stem job shortage" is a myth that tech employers have been whispering into dems' ears for years because they want to pay less

we all acknowledge that herman cain was a larp character right

hes the first vampire, taught by the mysterious crone (cf book of nod)—her man, cain

his 999 plan was a weird allusion to 666, possibly conflating the mark of the beast w the mark of cain???? makes sense when you considered the :drac: beast (causes frenzy)

no one believes he was seriously a real person right

Spending a Lot on Health Care Is the American Way

lmao

quote:

Unfortunately, expensive health care is embedded in the American way of life -- more specifically, the American desire to live it up with high consumption.

***

Once we focus on consumption, America’s high health-care expenditures no longer appear so unusual. In fact, if you graph health-care expenditures, per capita, against individual consumption, the fit is very close across developed nations. In other words, the spending bug tracks into health care, too.

To put it most simply, we Americans spend a lot on health care because we spend a lot period.

****

Furthermore, we shouldn’t take the lower health-care spending in many European nations as a sign of better health-care policy. It’s a reflection of a broader cultural difference. If the U.S. someday did move to a single payer system for health care, it probably would be a relatively expensive version of that idea. The U.S., of course, does have a partial single payer system through Medicare, and it is still more expensive per beneficiary than its European equivalents.

When it comes to understanding America, including its health care, the spending bug is more important than you might think.
