    What the fuck is that guy even saying?

    "Yea he tried to do it but if you look at it he really didn't try and do it it just needed to be done but he shouldn't have done it, but just think about the fact that he did do it means that we'll have to actually do something about that thing he wasn't doing but did."

    Trump kills the ACA via EO, Republican legislators go home and say "well we didn't vote for it."

    So they'll hate him.

    Because he can take it.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    In the past, my research suggested it wasn't really worth it unless you work in a dangerous job and/or people in your family do sports, but now I wonder if that's changed.

    Shrooms can treat/eliminate depression for up to 5 weeks after one dose. More testing is needed before this can become a standard.

    Excerpt from the textbook "Nursing: A Concept-Based Approach to Learning" in California ;

    Arabs/Muslims

    • May not request pain medicine but instead thank Allah for pain if it is the result of the healing medical process.
    • Pain is considered a test of faith. Muslim clients must endure pain as a sign of faith in return for forgiveness and mercy.


    Asians

    • Chinese clients may not ask for medication because they do not want to take the nurse away from a more important task.
    • Indians who follow Hindu practices believe that pain must be endured in preparation for a better life in the next cycle.


    Blacks

    • Blacks often report higher pain intensity than other cultures.
    • They believe suffering and pain are inevitable.


    Jews

    • Jews may be vocal and demand assistance.
    • They believe pain must be shared and validated by others.


    Hispanics

    • Hispanics may believe that pain is a form of punishment and that suffering must be endured if they are to enter heaven.
    • They vary in their expression of pain. Some are stoic and some are expressive.


    Native Americans

    • Native Americans may prefer to receive medications that have been blessed by a tribal shaman.
    • They may pick a sacred number when asked to rate pain on a numerical pain scale.

    Much like they did with Arthur Laffer, Kentucky is once again showing us what a Republican dream come true would look like. This time with Medicaid "reform."

    Twitter thread about the changes.

    I thought a Medicaid/medicare for work provision was borderline unconstitutional and probably wouldn't survive the courts?

    Depends who you ask, I think.

    I am swayed by the argument that people have the right to healthcare because the lack thereof interferes with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, which is essentially the legal argument that saved the Obamacare mandate.

    you realize the Declaration of Independence was an articulate middle finger to Britain and has no legal standing whatever in this nation, and that Roberts's decision rested entirely on the reasoning that the financial penalty for not carrying health insurance lay within the Congressional domain of levying taxes.

    I caught the flu in november this year :/ it was pretty nasty too. lots of watery itchy eyes, sneezing, and weirdly enough, a muddleheadedness. i even woke up at 3 am one day freaking out over trying to find a program on my cell thinking how important it was, and spending several minutes trying to locate it. gave up and went to bed. woke up next morning and realized there was no such program and i needed to do nothing.

    plus a lot of playing games and literally running directly into attacks when i wanted to avoid them. was kinda terrifying since stuff like that's never happened to me before.

    and no, i wasn't using tamiflu or anything. was too poor to afford anything.
