71. You may well be right.

May 2019

I was addressing the question whether this was a official picket/protest sanctioned and organised by a registered union.

My sister has direct experience of Kaiser’s ‘mental health’ care in California. She has too dollar coverage. The under resourcing is woeful.

For what it’s worth, I believe retaining they ACA with a string strong Public Option is the way to go. If existing regulation of private insurers is falling short, tighten it. MFA advocates remind.me of search and destroy tacticians. We had to burn down the village in order to save it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
