Are you rethinking the super efficient furnace in your house? Ready to have the coal dumped into your basement so you can shovel it into the boiler to heat your house?
Iβm convinced by the marketing geniuses at USA Interior. How about you? Ready for all the particulates and toxins? Do these dumb fucks really think that all these gas fired utilities will ditch their multimillion dollar turbines and go back?

Jamie Pollard and his multimedia wiz kids make Hilton a miserable, headache-inducing, literally hearing-damaging experience. Gin it up to ear-splitting levels at every opportunity. Thatβs not magic, itβs a sound assault.
Oh, and the hour-long post game parking lot gridlock sucks, too.

There are expressions, βwhistling past the graveyard,β and another, βwelfare queen,β that seem to fit this situation.
We already have socialism in the way that healthcare is paid for, but it is the most ridiculous and least effective way of delivering healthcare. If politicians and everyone else would just get over petty political labels, the least expensive insurance option is the biggest pool of people.
Bird got swept in with the rest of the MAGA cult, but I wonder what her real name recognition is among the vast majority of people who pay zero attention to news or government. Any idea, @laurarbelin.bsky.social? Who wins if both are basically unknown? Does incumbency and the cult push her over?
the healthcare that you may need. Americans should take the scales off their eyes and stop trying to find reasons for not moving to a Medicare-for-all model, but alas, the entrenched monied interests will never allow the simplest solutions to prevail.
in the event some peril occurs. The true craziness is that anyone thinks they need to preserve the current system where your economic caste determines whether you are able to pool with enough people to get sufficient coverage to not have to go into your own reserves (or just go bankrupt) to obtain
without the additional cost of dividends to shareholders. Lastly, as far as the whole capitalism-socialism debate goes, could we just please admit that insurance is a form of socializing the overall cost of ANY hazard. We are literally all contributing to the pot of money from which we hope to draw
is that American sacred cow: capitalism. While I believe in capitalism, IMHO the profit motive in healthcare is a huge factor killing Americansβ ability to get cost effective healthcare services and pharmaceuticals. At least, I wonder what would happen if there were fair and reasonable compensation
policies, rules, regulators, and profit motives. People always have complained and always will complain about how expensive things are, and medicine is no different. IMHO, the cost of healthcare is driven by too many factors to be overly sure about blaming any particular one, but the biggest one
Hands down, it has been the best treatment one could hope for. The cost paid by insurance has been kind of crazy. Everyone send to agree that everything is too expensive and complicated. The complicated criticism it seems to me is driven entirely by prolix insurance companies and their Byzantine
BTW, everyone says βhealthcare is broken,β but rarely does anyone say how or why. I have interacted with the healthcare system A LOT this past year with great insurance coverage and the BEST treatment. I count myself fortunate. The healthcare professionals and pharmaceuticals have been world class.
Nunn is desperate to save good political bacon. Whether he votes for an extension or not ( Iβm betting βnotβ), he floats the idea that he might be interested in a bipartisan compromise to be able to fling turds across the aisle later and accuse Dems of being βextremeβ @edtibbetts.bsky.social

It cannot be repeated enough to Rural America: ππ€‘π© killed you with tariffs, paid Argentina $20B which took your market and left you bankrupt, but you donβt have to worry about paying your undocumented workers because there wonβt be any nor crops to sell. And you are safe to disparage trans people.
Good news! The Ministry of Truth is hard at work rewriting history.

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.
