The fact that we already have Health Savings Accounts and the most marketized health care system in the world, and it is also the most expensive system does not seem to put a dent in these guy's theories of health economics
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

During ratification of the 14th Amendment, senators discussed whether the Citizenship Clause would apply to the children of immigrants and resoundingly concluded that it did. The text and history all point in one direction and the counter-arguments are patently fraudulent. I am going to lose my mind
The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

“thinks Democrats need to listen more”: I think Mamdani, with his canvassing and his night-shift campaigning and his meetings with workers, has done a tone of listening too?
The party is wide enough for Mamdani _and_ Spanberger! The press needs to stop forcing this strained dichotomy.

Both Abigail Spanberger and Zohran Mamdani are younger than their predecessors and stress the issue of affordability. But Spanberger’s campaign is about competence and pragmatism, not guaranteed heart-stirring. http://nyer.cm/UheaUsD

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

Learned last night that we’re getting a Netflix miniseries on the Garfield assassination with Michael Shannon as Garfield and Nick Offerman as Chester A. Arthur, and how are we not all talking about this? www.netflix.com/tudum/articl...
