I love it when people insist that we should go to a socialized health care system because of how well it works in England. The New York Times: Perhaps the only consistent thing about Britain’s socialized health care system is that it is in a perpetual state of flux, its structure constantly changing as governments […]

Let’s Go Team!

Let’s hope that Team Mostly-Red can win this battle.  Janet Adamy and Evan Perez via The Wall Street Journal: The federal government formally responded to the most serious legal challenge to the health-care overhaul, invoking its powers under the Constitution to regulate interstate commerce and impose taxes.

Getting Paid to be Self Responsible

Though I understand the concept well, being a 33 year old who has already suffered a heart attack, what ever happened to the days when not fucking dying was incentive enough for one to take his meds?  I sure hope this idea doesn’t become too popular as I’m sure that it will only be a […]
