As long as I live under the capitalistic system, I expect to have my life influenced by the demands of moneyed people. But I will be damned if I propose to be at the beck and call of every itinerant scoundrel who has two cents to invest in a postage stamp.

I’m not, like, any sort of expert about street gangs or anything but this seems highly implausible to me because:

This is neither here nor there, but the distinction between a FSA and a HSA is actually pretty monumental — FSAs are use-it-or-lose-it, HSAs are not — and I don't think we actually know which one Trump(/Rick Scott/Bill Cassidy) is talking about in his new concepts of a plan

My Shutdown Hot Take That Would Definitely Get Me Yelled At If Anyone On Here Cared About My Opinion is this:
Sometimes, you, the Poaster, have a better grip on what’s happening than the people who do this for a living. The assumption that you ALWAYS have a better grip rots the intellect.

Republicans will never come up with a plan to improve how health care is paid for in America because they are ideologically opposed to literally what insurance is and how it works

I disagree because the level the general public operates at is that bad things happened while a Republican is in the White House. Most people here are quartz-posting.

As a Chicago Guy I am profoundly resistant to the New Yawk Is The Greatest City Inna World hype but I will say this for NYC: if you spent as long as the person in front of me placing an order at an NYC bagel place everyone else in line would be arguing over who gets to keep her ears as a trophy

GOP health care plans always suck because American conservatives instinctually recoil from the idea of a system where most people pay more into it than they get out of it and unfortunately that is literally what health insurance is and how it works

i think we do actually need to force this issue.
"we", collectively, as humans
i think that we have had a window of internet driven activism that has notably elevated people with emotionally satisfying but practically disastrous policies and positions
if we want to succeed it has to end

It's bad manners to force the issue but in a lot of environmental advocacy (not necessarily climate), there is remarkable ambivalence about whether or not there should be people at all.
