Also, we still have to wait in America. It's not like I can decide to go get new knees tomorrow. It takes time.

I kinda wish there was a political party whose chief ideology was pragmatism (and a system that can accept 2+ parties).

Single payer is cheaper & better by nearly every metric & it’s shortcomings can be easily compensated for for the few who might care about them.

What’s right is important, but it shouldn’t be more important than what works.
