Given basic economic forces, socialism should not be feared. It makes sense. Basic dynamics of economics boil down to “stuff.” People need it, there only are so many ways to make it, and the more people that control it, the better. 8/26
A national fee schedule would not work without enforcement. If that enforcement is “national” it necessarily means the Federal government - read “The Summer of 1787" and why the Articles of Confederation were replaced. 18/26

The report notes the numbers are similar to those pre-ACA. A lot of us believed ACA did not go far enough. These debts would have been off people’s shoulders if the USA had single payor. 20/26

I’m a different kind of Republican, 1 that lately has been rare. I’m pro-choice & anti-war. We need ignorance & bigotry out of politics. 2 steps that direction: 1) remove an illegal President from the WH and 2) have rational people in charge of the GOP. 25/26

I’m Mark Small, candidate for U.S. House in Indiana’s 5th Congr Distr. I’m proud to be a progressive. We need to reign in several fiscal policies: tax cuts for the very rich and idiotic military spending. I approve of this blog. Hell, I wrote it. 26/26
