Medical debt is not optional debt like the purchase of a luxury car or yacht.
You can incur massive medical debt in the blink of an eye due to a heart attack, an accident, or a cancer diagnosis. It should NOT be used as part of one's credit score.
Cruelty is the point.

The Trump surrender of Ukraine descends into utter chaos. But “chaos” is too mellow a word: What we have here is a rich bouillabaisse of incompetence, mendacity, tragedy, farce, and diplomatic blunder. Words have a hard time keeping up with the story. But we’ll try. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Either Trump is irreparable corrupt and you're ok with it or he is so addle-brained that he doesn't know what day it is and you're ok with it. It's one or the other. Which is it?

When my hometown of Sumter, SC is mentioned, I need to set the record straight.
1. That plant was initiated under Biden, not Trump.
2. It's tied to EVs, which Trump calls a hoax.
3. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will kill thousands of EV jobs.
Facts matter.

Don’t like your higher grocery prices due to tariffs? Lindsey Graham helped produce this. South Carolina can do much better with @drannieandrews.com.
Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.
