@RWMaloneMD Numerous studies show having health insurance leads to better health outcomes & lower mortality rates. Health care expansions under ACA correspond w/ BMIs leveling off after decades of increases. Insecurity&stress are factors in overweight. European generous safety nets =less fat
@yoalexrapz 60 years ago? You mean less than 40. The water-carrying craze started in the 1990s. I'll tell you how we lived - EVERY store, the halls at school, public parks & tennis courts, etc. ALL had water fountains. Now the germ phobia is so high that no one uses them or they don't exist.
@PursueTruth92 "The so-called progressives are anything but; they force beautifully diverse children into boxes defined by stereotypes" Are you kidding me? Have you ever followed Matt Walsh or Billboard Chris? They are not progressives! They are opposed to any kind of transgression of tradition
@heresyfinancial Firstly, every developed nation in world has a large & active public sector. You could live in a nation w/o many gov employees. There are plenty. Why dont you move? You probably never considered that most of finance is parasitic. Not government employees!

I wish conservatives understood this:
Without blue states, America would look like a developing country — patchy internet, collapsing schools, no tech, no medicine, no future.
Red states cash the checks. Blue states write them.
You don’t fund the nation — you drain it. The loudest shouts come from the emptiest hands.
@RBReich Revisit some of the Dem positions. Stop insisting "Trans women are women," and passing laws allowing males to serve with females in prisons, and on female sport teams. It makes us look crazy, and it's a big reason Trump was elected.
@sometherapist #3 doesn't necessarily follow from 1 & 2. Either poorly worded, or if you believe it, then stop wearing Levi jeans. How people dress or look has nothing to do w/ their sex. Males can wear make up or a dress. Still a man. Some females like to wear "boxer" underwear. Still female.
We used to call this “androgynous.” It described a look/style and didn’t attempt to classify nonconforming people into a third category of human being called “nonbinary” or claim they were the opposite sex.
Nobody is confused about different “gender expressions,” they’re confused about how so many people who believe they’re progressive suddenly started believing a woman having short hair makes her not-a-woman and a man wearing makeup makes him not-a-man.
@brainenergy4me Please seek out alternative approaches to healing. After what I have experienced, and seen with my loved ones, I would only ever go to a doctor if I needed emergency treatment after an accident or something. For chronic problems, western medicine is most of the time not helpful.
@Ryan_M_Boothe@karlykingsley You might want to check the demographics of the last election before you post with such definitiveness. 48% of those 18-49 voted for Harris vs. 39% of those 18-49 voting for Trump.
@skoolteecher1@mirandadevine You love a guy who wants to turn the US over to the Insurance Industry, Wall St and banks. Do you think he gives two sh*ts about any of the people who genuflect at his image? You are all in mass delusion.
@Furrystoat @mirandadevine "Going outside to meet people" -- maybe something that many younger people (higher percentage are Aspie) are too terrified to do. They cling to their screens and do not know how to socialize.
@scottsantens If UBI were ever instituted in the US, you would have to also get rid of the big gift to Wall St -- illegal labor. Wages would still stay very low with 20 million illegal immigrants in the country.
