A few George Carlin quotes: "The planet isn't going anywhere, we are." And, "This planet could shake us off like a bad case of fleas." And yes as well, the idea of being separate from everything else is the great illusion, we're part of something much larger than our selves. Like a cell in a leaf on a tree which is part of a forest etc. Like a star is part of a solar system which is part of a galaxy etc. Whether we look in larger or smaller terms there's a continuum of interconnection. It's just when we think on a human scale and we see our corporeal selves we often, erroneously, make that distinction.

I once saw this political cartoon where there was a map of the United States of America. In the image, all of the landlocked states were in red with 1 big word bubble that said "climate change is a myth." Meanwhile, all of the coastal & southern border states were blue with multiple word bubbles that said "we beg to differ" since the landlocked states don't experience the impacts of climate change that the coastal states do. Also, you'd figure that more Conservative Evangelicals would actually care about climate change & it's impacts on society. Keep in mind, The Bible says that since the Earth is God's gift to man it's our duty to take care of it and everyone & everything on it. But, even if they found a way around this, you'd figure that they would at least want to prevent millions of migrants from countries that are no longer habitable from wanting to come to America in the future. Finally, even if you don't support The Green New Deal and similar policies because you don't believe in climate change, why wouldn't you at least support it because it would promote new well-paying green energy jobs here in the United States? And I'll end with a joke: Ben Shapiro: If you believe you're in an area that's gonna be flooded from climate change then just sell your house and move. Responder: Just 1 small problem: Sell our houses to who, Ben?! Aquaman?!

Last week I bought insulin for my son, including 2 packets of jelly beans for his hypos. My bill was $6. The jelly beans cost $2.50 a packet. The jellybeans cost more than the 25 vials of insulin in the prescription. I don’t fully understand the medical/insurance system in the US.

Price gouging of pharmaceutical drugs already makes no sense to me; if you as a company charge medications so much that many potential customers can't afford them, then how are you going to make money off those medications in the long-term with only the wealthy top percentage of the population being able to afford them? Personally, I feel the federal government needs to have some form of price control to ensure that we don't pay an absurd amount for prescriptions compared to other developed countries. If a bottle of pills in say Germany costs $6.00, that same bottle of pills shouldn't cost more then 50% extra here in the U.S., which would be $9.00 in this case. I'm not saying pharmaceutical companies don't deserve to make profit for their research and development, but they shouldn't be able to charge insane prices for their life saving products that most uninsured Americans can't afford.

@DarkSonicSpear Жыл бұрын

The simple answer is that those who can't afford it will go into debt to not die. Pharmacy doesn't care how the customer pays that debt, since they're already getting paid. Healthcare is effectively infinite demand to the consumer, so the price only depends on the maximum they can get in loans with absolutely everything (including future potential earnings) as collateral. There's actually A LOT of reasons capitalism doesn't work to regulate Healthcare prices.

I love that the bill looks good in the headlines, but you have to be employed to qualify, whether you bought energy efficient things or not. That cuts out not only the unemployed who are counted in the unemployment rate, but everyone else who's unemployed and not currently on UI/EUC benefits. So those who are not employed still have to pay full price for energy efficient stuff - and that just consigns the poor to cheap-o junk which can, through other bad manufacturing techniques, expose them to more harmful chemicals than what are typically used in more eco-friendly versions of so many things we all use every day. *It would be extremely helpful to also require companies to offer discounts on eco-friendly items, for those who qualify for Medicaid, SNAP, etc.* That way, *everyone* gets to participate in helping to save the environment, and oftentimes, our own health and that of our families!
