There should be a comma after "Nah." Are you an "alpha" trying to distract from the conversation?

Anyone with enough money has been playing the game for roughly 250 years. Term limits isn't a fix by itself, and with other countries purchasing presidents, maybe not the first reform, but it's on the list, no?

You. Couldn't, understand! That.?

There are many things that would be a good change. In a vacuum, term limits would absolutely be one of them. Like excluding family members from the presidency. You can argue against it, but you're wrong.

I'm from a rural state, so I get that some don't want term limits, or the pork spending and leadsership positions would never go to small population congresspeople. But, fuck it. It's one way to help people and not land make decisions.

To be fair, and it's still bullshit, we also look at number of patients per week per cost. Crispr for example, could be used for a huge variety of issues, but curing 100 people globally for $100M in clinical development is just not going to work.

Every dental plan I've ever had (and they are considered good) was just my money pretax. No actual insurance. So, use it or lose it. I've already paid for it.

Side note, this high school bio exercise and dogs in general should be the only "proof" one needs for evolution.

Don't forget spray sunscreen, and possibly minorities having sex?

Wonder if this will push doctors out of Spokane, Missoula, etc. So much brain drain.

I don't see why not? And is better than or. Sometimes.

You have explained a key part of the urban vs. rural divide. My kids are so "race blind" I have to make a concerted effort to teach them about all types of racism, direct through to institutional. Also euality vs. equity etc. It's way easier to teach them about income inequality.
