Dr. Don McCanne compares our convoluted method of determining drug prices to that of Taiwan. Not surprisingly, #SinglePayer systems have the kind of leverage and cost control options that we can only dream of.

Ultimately, the choice is up to us. I choose vigilance over acceptance. Unity over division. Diligence over apathy. Empathy over intolerance. Truth over lies. Hope over helplessness. And love over hate.

Shame on @nytimes The Daily podcast for twice citing the cost of #MedicareForAll without comparing to our system's current cost.
If we're going to talk about this issue, let's lay out all of the facts and be honest with listeners.

How can we call this a civilized society when some Americans have access to the best medical care in the world and others are unable to walk into a doctor’s office because they lack money?

Marva Wade of speaking to a full house on why nurses are fighting for #MedicareForAll: “As a former OR nurse, the last thing you want to hear on the worst day of your life is that your insurance won’t cover your care — a delay that could mean life or death.”

Even billionaires are acknowledging it, folks.
When 40% of Americans can’t afford basic needs, or a $400 emergency, the problem isn’t unique. It’s systemic.
That’s not good for anyone. Even billionaires know they can’t shield themselves from this kind of perilous instability.

A woman is five times more likely to be killed during a domestic violence situation if a gun is present. When we fight for universal background checks, we’re fighting to keep guns out of dangerous abusers’ hands, protect women, and save lives.

Where’s the outrage over the 23 GOP members who voted NO on a resolution condemning bigotry today?
Oh, there’s none?
Did they get called out, raked over, ambushed in halls and relentlessly asked why not?
No? Okay. Got it.

Tell Congress: Stop the sexual assault of migrant children and women under Trump.
Detaining infants is beyond cruel. This Administration's approach isn't border security; it's a human rights abuse. We are better than this.

Our criminal justice system is broken. From a money bail system that disproportionately harms the poor & people of color, to the reality that Black & brown Americans are incarcerated at higher rates. We must recognize these injustices & fight for a fairer system. #DayofEmpathy

It's unacceptable that 1 in 5 Americans can’t afford their medication due to skyrocketing costs. We need a comprehensive approach to lowering drug prices that includes leveraging Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices and enforcing consequences for unjust price gouging.

BREAKING NEWS: A new Trump administration rule would cut funding for health care organizations that provide abortions, including Planned Parenthood.
Abortion is legal. We will never let Trump change that.
Sign the petition to stop Trump's attack on reproductive rights:
In fact, wages are so low today compared to actual worker productivity that they are no longer the reflections of worker value as they used to be.
Productivity has grown 6.2x more than pay:

Trump just declared a national emergency so that he can build his wall along the southern border. Add your name to tell Republicans: No National Emergency. No Wall.
