  • It’s nice that he can run a one person show. It might be more variety of work but dealing with insurance paperwork sounds like a second job in itself.

    I think if more primary care physicians can go back to a no insurance, flat-fee model and insurance is saved for urgent, emergency, specialized and long term care then Americans can live healthier and save money (neither of which is good in the eyes of for-profit healthcare and insurance), doctors and general practitioners will actually do what they enjoy and all around increase the efficiency of healthcare in the US.



  • “We continue to believe that a hostage deal is in the best interests of the Israeli people; it’s in the best interest of the Palestinian people,” the US state department spokesperson, Matthew Miller, said.

    “It would bring an immediate ceasefire, it would allow increased movement of humanitarian assistance and so we’re going to continue to work to try to reach one.”

    At least the US State Department is allowed to say the word ceasefire as an acceptable proposal.




  • Every aspect seems about this war since Oct 7th especially seems strange to me.

    As a general pattern in North America that I’ve observed: Pro-Israel government actions, aid, narratives etc. spread and proceed quickly, anti-Israel or Pro-Palestinian movements are immediately acted to harshly but are only later given credence, and anti-Palestine incidents are investigated very slowly and usually the US and Canadian governments rely on Israel’s worthless word.

    Why are our countries so lopsided when it comes to engaging in these topics diplomatically?

    If only a genocide weren’t happening in the backdrop, I’d be fine with Iran, Israel, Ukraine, Russia and any major powers that want to war with each other to play Duck Hunt with their air defence systems, I’d just ask they designate civilian free areas to target for each other, and pride themselves on whatever amount get through.





  • The more the mouthpieces shout that “we’re winning,” the clearer it is that we’re losing. Lying is their craft. We need to get used to that. Life is less secure than before October 7. The beating we took will sting for years to come. The international ostracism won’t go away. And, of course, the dead won’t be coming back. Nor will many of the hostages.

    We have to make it clearer than ever that this rightwing fantasy of subjugation of a population to genocidal conditions doesn’t fulfill any aims to stop terrorism whatsoever.
