How Private Equity Is Changing Housing In some communities, corporations control more than 20 percent of properties.

Republicans push high deductible plans and health savings accounts A Republican call to give Americans cash instead of health insurance subsidies revives an old idea that has left millions with medical debt.

If I had to bet, I'd bet no Republican health care bill gets voted on. They've nearly all voted or not voted to uninsure 15 million.

They don't want ads explaining how they backed a bill that can never pass the Senate, which would raise insurance costs for at least 20 million more Americans.

ACA is not just subsidies. It is rules that ensure preventative care, pre-existing condition coverage, ban lifetime maximums, the right to seek an authentic appeal to denials, more coverage options for part-time and freelance workers, jobs for healthcare providers bcse more patients can afford them.

Itโ€™s time to stop saying that we need to understand these people. We do understand them.

We understand that they have dug in their heels so deeply, they will not be moved by anything: not facts or data or truth or their own eyes.

After the cuts, even those who remained felt unsafe especially with a reckless and hostile to any concern for the environment administration. Better to leave people lesser informed than to give them any facts that imply climate/environment may be priorities. I wish you well.
