If it ever comes to that, we'll be transferring all our collective assets to my wife or a trust in her name, getting divorced on paper, and then I'll probably just give up and die.

We need a single payer system, AND ROBUST FINDING FOR THE NIH AND CDC, like the rest of the world, but better.

I'm smelling Revolution in the air tonight, friends.

Never forget the 8 dems who made it happen.

For all the wrong reasons.

The dish isn't what I wanted it to be.

I made an amazing fish demi, but the guest didn't want it since it was made with fish other than Tuna.

The guest also declined the mushroom crust and turnips that were supposed to finish the dish.

Instead it just got a drizzle of single varietal EVOO.

Red states produce the bulk of our meat, true—though California still produces 8% of American beef.

But the red states’ role as America’s breadbasket is LONG gone. Most red state agro-economy has been redirected from human-grade food to commodity feedstock.

And much of that is on federal welfare.
It goes even deeper than this. The vast bulk of red state agriculture is corn, soybeans or seed crops.

And most of it is not for US human consumption! We export 20% of our corn, half of our soybean and seeds. The rest?

Most of it becomes oil, animal feed or….ETHANOL.

The subsidized fuel additive.
Half the fruits and vegetables in the US come from California, 75% of the nuts. The flyover states like to pretend they do much

Really so much more in life can be made better by watching Julia Child and Jacques Pepin.

Insurance operates via risk pools to smooth out the cost of providing coverage. An individual "negotiating" with an insurance company will be assumed to be high risk, and premiums will be astronomically high. The reason why the marketplaces exist is to create risk pools that smooth out premium costs

If the last white dude he talked to had told him the real way to go was to just trash Obamacare and pay medical providers directly and people could just go get free healthcare, he’d have repeated a plan for single payer universal healthcare on national tv.
