“Congress is considering proposals that could change Medicaid financing and eligibility. “Some of these proposed changes could cause millions of people to lose access to care under Medicaid. People without coverage often skip necessary care, leading to worse health outcomes. For people in poor health, the results can be dangerous. “Cuts will put a greater […]
Even I am thinking of a recession as more and more people or Labor are being let go by the government. The layoff has expanded from just the government. Corporations are laying off people also. It is not like there was a huge decrease in business. Maybe companies believe they can be more efficient by […]
When you start reading this commentary, it consists of a series of purposeful misinformation statements. Some might call them lies. The people making them have nothing else, having a basis to add to this other make stuff up. The system works. Congress does not want to spend the money and fix it. For a small […]

“But that is what he ran on, what the people who elected him wanted him to do,” the TV journalist said in response to the interviewee’s criticism of some of a deluge of executive orders. If what he ran on grants license, Trump has license to do almost anything. Say a presidential candidate runs promising […]
The weight of evidence—scientific and epidemiological—points to a zoonotic origin for SARS-CoV-2 with the epicenter at the Huanan wet market in Wuhan, China. Although the virus is endemic in bats, there’s little evidence for a direct jump of the virus from bats to humans in Wuhan. The most parsimonious hypothesis is that some other mammal […]
The differences in Republican and Democrat’s views can play out in how they view certain aspects of the US. For example, small businesses versus corporations. Both appear to perceive small business as being positive and take a negative view on corporations. I suspect it is one having a greater impact versus the other. Americans overwhelmingly […]
