Just because he cribbed his speech from the elephant man doesn’t make it political.

Healthcare pricing is opaque at best. Do you think if the prices charged by hospitals, medical centers, and providers for specific procedures were stated up front the free market would start bringing prices down?

Happy Holidays

I’m not sure about that Tom. Single issue voters (abortion, for instance) only care about that issue. They don’t see anything else as problematic. I know, because they’re my relatives.

I wonder if the end result of Mr Trump’s tariff boondoggle won’t be some think tank justifying a highly regressive flat tax policy because, β€œLook how much money it brought in to the government!”

Amazing. Trump is taking over Intel - a truly socialist action - and you say Obama is a socialist.

Based on conversations I’ve been having, only about a quarter of Americans know this.

No, no. Just pretend everything is normal and ignore the crisis.

β€œX says it is raining. Y says it is not. Since Y is inside she has less information than X, who is outside getting rained on.” This report is accurate.

@scalzi.com I really enjoyed Starter Villain. I’m sure you only intend for it to be a one-off, but I’d love to know what happens to the dolphins, whales, and cats. And Til.
