Hatred for C suite leeches is a pre-existing condition, charges are denied

The killer apparently used a fake id at the hostile he stayed at, and as well intentionally dropped a burner phone in the alley as he left the scene of the crime

If governments should be afraid of their people, and we're governed by oligarchs, then the oligarchs should be afraid of the people.

The jokes, etc comments aside, the worst thing we can do to health insurance companies is reform our system so they can't profit off of denying the care our doctors prescribe for us.

They're nothing but middlemen, and this system simply doesn't exist in other developed countries. They all have better care and they pay less than us for it. I realize this might be literally impossible to implement during a Trump/GOP presidency, but we as country can do the best thing for ourselves, while also giving the insurance companies the finger by passing some form of single payer/universal health care.
