Socialism may sound appealing to some people today but history shows it has failed in many countries.
Just look at Venezuela, Cuba, the Soviet Union and others. Those countries faced economic decline, shortages, and a loss of freedom. We shouldn’t repeat those mistakes.
Many young people are struggling with high housing costs, student debt and uncertainty about their future. Those are real problems and we shouldn’t ignore them. But history shows that socialism doesn’t solve those problems. It often leads to less freedom, less innovation, and fewer opportunities.
Instead of abandoning the system that has created so much opportunity, we should fix what’s broken while protecting the freedoms that have made America a country that millions of people still dream of coming to.
I built a way to save America a whole lot of money.
A patient of mine needs a mastectomy with tissue expander reconstruction, so we called a hospital’s price transparency line to ask for an estimate before surgery.
The quote? $430,000.
Then I sat down and estimated what it would cost to perform that exact same operation at Redbud Surgery Center.
About $17,000.
This is exactly why I believe independent outpatient surgery centers are part of the future of healthcare.
When physicians are empowered to build efficient, patient-centered facilities, we can often provide the same high-quality care in a setting that is more affordable, more transparent, and designed around the patient experience.
Healthcare doesn’t have to be this expensive.
Competition works. Transparency works. Innovation works.
If we want to lower healthcare costs in America, we don’t have to lower the quality of care. We simply have to start supporting models that deliver excellent outcomes without unnecessary overhead.
There are solutions. We just have to be willing to build them.
Thank you David ORourke & @TheNYRA
ZERO excuse for @keenelandracing@GulfstreamPark@santaanitapark@ChurchillDowns to follow. ZERO
Step up and do what’s right
And if you can’t survive without an early CAW cutoff. Just shut down
RT if you agree and start putting more pressure on these tracks.
@rachbarnhart Different situation but evidence is clear of a sharp increase in repeat youth offender car thefts resulting in reckless endangerment and even homicide. Would you push for a change in state laws to increase punishment for those offenders? Or perhaps increase RPD resources?
@rachbarnhart Thank you for the reasonable discourse. FWIW and IMO the punishment (or lack thereof) is the problem and I think many voters agree. Solve that (regardless of which branch you do it under) and the situation will improve. As a WNY voter, that’s one issue I’m concerned about
@rachbarnhart Honestly not sure how you can say you have no idea. There are many examples of the legal system in WNY providing leniency to offenders. Look at the joy riders over the summer. Whether it is the judiciary or the legislature takes action, something needs to change don’t you agree?
This sucks. Does anybody disagree? No. But ask someone what we should do about it and it’s a huge argument. How is this difficult to resolve? FYI this happens every year multiple times at Charlotte, Lilac Festival, and any outdoor spot that used to be nice in Rochester NY
Officers broke up a group of 400 to 500 people after a fight broke out at Ontario Beach Park yesterday evening. What security measures are in place to protect beach-goers and prevent fights? We go in-depth in this story: https://t.co/ySuoYyhi2P
People give @RepoleStable shit but he’s the only voice I’ve heard trying to unify the sport so it will survive. Sport needs a national body or it’ll never grow again
While everyone is complaining about the TC and the derby winner…
The TC is the least of our concerns for horse racing.
How about we talk about the 50% reduction in foals?
The lack of horses running past 3?
Tracks disappearing yearly?
Gamblers dealing with CAWs?
@thestaggieman They’re owned by the same companies that own the tracks. We can either create a formal governing body for American horse racing or start a track as far as I can tell
