Are we talking about UHC or single payer?
Either way -- yes, we cannot get to checkmate in one move. We need to start with Medicare selling individual and group plans at cost + 10%.

We don't have to get to checkmate in one move. Start by letting businesses buy group plans from Medicare. Have Medicare charge (avg cost per Medicare user last year) + 10%. Same for the individual plans. Businesses will save money, consumers will save money and get better care.

Start by allowing Medicare to offer individual plans for people under 65 and group plans businesses. Charge cost plus 10%. Cost can be based their annual average cost per patient.

Don't need to outlaw private plans. Just watch bad businesses fail in the market when competing against the government.

Take breaks, build in little rewards. Use the pomodoro technique.

If you're slowing down you might need the rest. So stop piling more on your plate and stop feeling guilty over self care.

Anything worth doing is worth halfway doing. Brush your teeth, halfway fix your hair, etc.

I appreciate you giving me a detailed answer!

Double jeopardy? Or does that only apply after a trial is completed?

Hey if it hadn't been for the human sacrifice we would have still been sacrificing animals to pay for spiritual crimes. Because God is a sociopath who demands payment in blood.

We are basically in the middle of a cold civil war right now. One side is attempting to capture the government. The other is waking up late and fighting back.

It's tough.

Oil. But protecting critical infrastructure is a part of any conflict. Or at least, should be.

Right. Which is why I said we were protecting it from the consequences of our own actions.

You're not wrong about the motivation for the war, but I would have done the same thing. Protecting critical infrastructure is a logical choice.

Of course, we were protecting it from the consequences of our own actions... But I still would have protected it.

Call it in as a hostage situation next time. Or a home invasion.

@missfannie.bsky.social I gotta say, it seems like Murkowski would have ratted out Anne Frank for a better tax deal.

He decided not to run. Not saying the DNC is working well, but he wasn't ousted.

TikTok removed this video after 150k+ views, thousands of likes, and hundreds of shares. Before removing it, they limited shares, added a content warning, and gave people strikes for downloading and reposting.

My followers over there have asked me to share it here so they can still access it.

He... Didn't want someone who looked like a movie star? Because... Huh??

I think you won more than you lost in that transaction.
