A Canadian doctor explains the difference between the universal health care system in Canada, where everyone is covered and there are no out-of-pocket costs, and the American system where people go bankrupt in order to receive cancer treatment.

James: His critics said that he should wait his turn. His critics said that he did not have the experience. His critics said they did not have the right name. Well, now all of them know his god damn name.

Seeing a lot of skepticism and second guessing over our decision to bomb Iran and its like you don’t even trust our reality show president or our vice president funded by a blood drinking weirdo or our secretary of defense who hosted Fox & Friends or the guy who is literally from MTVs the Real World
