Weird how at some point the ACA subsidies went from meaningless technocrat babble that it was obviously incredibly stupid for Democrats to try protecting to being incredibly important for helping people avoid suffering.
And Democrats managed to get it wrong both times!! What were the odds?

Just to add onto this, we took a look at the major polls for the VA and NJ Elections, and ranked them by how accurate they were. On the left is VA Gov, and on the right is NJ Gov. (1/2)

Gonna talk in entomology class today about how Jewish scientists forced to work in Nazi concentration camps secretly sent fake vaccines to the eastern front and managed to kill 4,000 Nazis with typhus.
Vaccine subterfuge: How vaccine-makers fooled the Nazis from inside a concentration camp lab
Confined first at Auschwitz then Buchenwald, a Jewish microbiologist conspired with a ragtag team of scientists and rebels to send dud typhus vaccines to the German soldiers on the eastern front.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.
No questions asked.
No proof required.
Pass it on.

However, in redoing everything they never thought to ask what language and/or writing system they use in Korea.
Or what languages have massive political connotations after being forced upon the public to destroy national identity during Japanese occupation.
