WOW! Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe called Donald Trump and MAGA a "Nazi movement" and was arrested and carried out of a city council meeting by police.
not to be a broken record, but if Joe Biden had axed hundreds of FAA officials, fired the TSA chief, froze air traffic controller hiring & then we had *multiple* planes falling out of the sky in a **single week** — the articles of impeachment would already be drawn up
Call me crazy but I don’t think President Kamala Harris would’ve turned off free lunches for poor children or cut Medicaid funding for vulnerable Americans.
The “big pharma is a scam to keep people sick so they can make more money” people voting for the guy who shuts down all the research that isn’t motivated by profit so that big pharma has way more power and control than ever is pretty confusing.
@RNGebhardt@olsonplanner Uh…. Fourth year Med student here— I started patient interaction my FIRST year and in your last year you do an “acting internship” where they have us work as residents lmfao
If you think physicians are overpaid, maybe you should take the necessary course work in undergrad, take and pass the MCAT, apply for med schools, pay hundreds of thousands for tuition, learn for 4 years in a very high pressure learning environment, then pay thousands more to apply for a training job that you may or may not get, then if you do get it, you get to work 80 hours a week making $15/hour for 3 - 9 years wherein more than one day off in a row is a rarity, all the while many normal life events and processes get pushed to the side, then you FINALLY get a “real” job that’ll pay very well but you’ll realize your patients are not your customers (the insurance companies are), they are the product, and you’ll realize you have a lot to learn about the business of medicine in order to advocate for your patients and for yourself in order to be okay.
Then YOU can say “no thanks I don’t deserve to make that much.”
Or you can just skip all of that, realize now that the insurance and hospital system complexes are trying to hoodwink you, and appreciate the life work and care physicians commit to all of us, recognizing that while all things in medicine play a role in what we see today, physicians themselves are not the villain.
They are on our side.
Trump announces reparations for white people. He says he will ask the Justice Department to penalize colleges that consider diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and fine them so he can pay “restitution” to white people who he considers the real victims of racial discrimination.
Kamala literally said i will give yall a $6000 tax credit for the first year of your child’s life & $25,000 the first time you buy a home.
And people said Trump, who wants to lower taxes for the wealthiest earners, is going to make them rich again. You can’t make this up.
No matter what happens, it saddens me deeply that rape, felonies, trying to overthrow our democracy, misogyny, racism and transphobia are somehow not deal breaks for 10’s of millions of Americans.
Really is a tough call.
On one hand - every Nobel prize winning economist is adamantly stating that Harris has a significantly better economic plan
But on the other hand - the dumbest people I’ve ever interacted with say Trump is a good businessman
Quite the dilemma
Election Day Eve Reminder: you’re closer to being homeless than you are to being a billionaire. Abortion care doesn’t only benefit those seeking to terminate a pregnancy. You aren’t rich enough to benefit frm any of Trump’s policies. Immigration isn’t crushing you. Capitalism is.
