@emilmalek8752 Keeping their own currency with the smartest thing they did. They vastly get a better system.

@kroketrendang4 @StefanFrancisci Honestly, it’s just an inefficient use of land having to put in the middle of a city. Both are kind of bad.

@SteveKerins @SteveMatthews12 It needs to come from the upper middle class.

[🇺🇸 Needs too 🇵🇦 @needstoo1]

@moonbeamer6 @MattBoxer94 No, it’s not the upper middle class has it the best in this country no matter what they say. We’re going to have to tax them more. If we want to close the deficit let alone add social programs. You don’t understand what’s going on.

@maroonsfcb @afcblaugrana Hospitals set ridiculous chargemaster prices. Insurance negotiates a “discount” off those fake prices. Both sides pat each other on the back. Most hospitals bills in the USA are largely theoretical. No one paid anyone a million dollars nor were they ever going to.

The Reflecting Pool is a perfect metaphor for the Trump administration:

- Ignore experts and science
- Overspend
- Declare early, historic victory
- "THE LEFT HATE THIS"
- Ends in total failure
- Unfounded conspiracies about sabotage
- MAGA pretends it doesn't actually matter

Trump might be the worse President in USA history.

Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands are U.S. territories.

Their remote location should be considered in applying U.S. law, especially for restrictions that uniquely burden them due to their distance from our continent.

These Pacific islands are thousands of miles closer to Manila, Tokyo, and Fiji than to Honolulu—which itself lies thousands of miles from the U.S. mainland.

U.S. “Jones Act of the Skies” cabotage rules nevertheless block foreign commercial air carriers from serving these territories, as they do for the states.

The result: sky-high fares, crushed tourism, and isolated communities already struggling with often-crippling poverty.

A carve-out for those territories seems worth considering.

The downside for major U.S. air carriers would almost certainly be minimal.

The upside for the residents of these territories would be massive.

Targeted exemptions—similar to existing maritime carve-outs for some of these islands—might make a lot of sense.

Congress should seriously consider legislation to cut the red tape, boost competition, and deliver fairness to the residents of Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

Having heard from their territorial governors this morning, I’m considering introducing a bill in the Senate to ease these burdens and look forward to additional input from residents of these territories, U.S. air carriers, and other interested parties.

@AlTonno1 Everyone likes foreigners who like a weird thing about their culture. I remember all the German ones were like American shocked by bakery. Like we have those here guys calm down.

Teachers make more than minimum wage?

[Me @KirkWrites79]

This is nasty. A lot of comedians are awful people. Teachers don't make minimum wage. They are underpaid and have to deal with bad kids and dumb ass parents like him.

Texas and Alabama didn’t expand Medicaid. I think there’s a lot of confusion from people that live in red state that don’t understand how well people have it in health insurance in blue states.

[VB Knives @Empty_America]

Then again, what percent of the US population is already on government provided health care?

Add up Medicare, all forms of Medicaid/Chip, Obamacare subsidized plans, all public employees like teachers, all military, etc.

It's a lot, just very disorganized and kind of hidden.
