Republican't Health Care.

So the Republican't version of health care does the following:


  1. Increases the cost of insurance for the elderly by as much as 67% - because the ceiling on coverage is no longer 3 times what the younglings pay but 5 times.
  2. Medicaid expansion goes bye bye, although those states that refused it are going to get small rewards.
  3. Planned Parenthood is defunded.
  4. The Subsidies that presently help people get coverage are gone.
  5. The limit on how much a CEO can deduct for their plan has been removed.
  6. Instead of having an individual mandate, anyone who goes 63 (!?) days or more can be charged an extra premium by their insurer - up to 130% of the original premium.
  7. The essential benefits portion of the ACA also goes bye bye, so now an insurer can pick and choose which thing you're going to go bankrupt over.
  8. There are six (6) pages in the new bill dealing with LOTTERY WINNERS, and keeping them away from Medicaid!
  9. Repeals the tanning tax.

Yep, people are gonna die.


Cheap shots:


Actually, Obama is only 7.38% at fault.


This is going to put us near the top when people discuss countries that abuse human rights.



It's a good question. Why would someone put a luxury hotel there?

They keep creating the same 40,000 jobs but I don't actually see anyone working. Just sayin'. By the way, this is the same 40,000 jobs Trump's Secretary of State Rex Tillerson himself announced back when he was CEO and Obama was President. Just sayin'.

Look out menfolk. It's tomorrow.

Didn't we just pass 400?

Here is how to make an Island Breeze:


4 oz. Pineapple Juice
1.5 oz. Rum
1 oz. Cranberry Juice
2 Dashes Angostura Bitters

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a tall glass with ice, and garnish with a lime wedge. 


Sometimes I can actually hear in the background Daffy Duck saying, "Deficit, Schmeficit, as long as I'm rich."

Meanwhile, over at the Stateless Department...

Yes, the 2020 election has already begun fundraising
