An economic model that doesn't prioritize profit over everything else... which is what capitalism does.

Let me know if you form an opinion beyond "all the dictators told me that this is what communism is, so I have no choice but to believe them".

They might be over-qualified, actually.

Yes, but capitalism is an economic model that aids and abets greed. Where greed is rewarded almost exclusively.

You might ditch, but they have enough data that says enough other people aren't going to.

Just remember whenever you're annoyed by something and think "why is this a thing? This annoys me so it shouldn't happen", there's thousands of other people who can live with it or just don't give a shit.

So... you're saying the Secretary of State is meant to be an international gofer for the president? That no one is supposed to do anything without a clear directive from the president?

No wonder so many people seem to think the presidency is the only election that matters, they consider the role that of a god-king of ultimate power...

I mean... that's kind of how it works? The president isn't some kind of demi-god that holds all knowledge and power in their hands while in office... they have lots of staffers and consultants that provide info and policy suggestions.

It's been a while since I've had supplementary procedures, so that's good to know.

Now I just have to wait for all nine (and a half) bills after emergency services.

Considering how fractured medical billing is these days, often the techs contracted by your in-network doctors office are actually out-of-network.

Isn't medical billing fun?
