Discussion of public health and health care policy, from a public health perspective. The U.S. spends more on medical services than any other country, but we get less for it. Major reasons include lack of universal access, unequal treatment, and underinvestment in public health and social welfare. We will critically examine the economics, politics and sociology of health and illness in the U.S. and the world.
BRA-FUCKING-VO! I thoroughly enjoyed reading the uber-hard-hittin truth of Burneko's pocket-sized manifesto.
The most revealing things I read/heard about Trump--who's always been a sick joke as a pseudo-adult human--before the election were as follows:
1) A real estate businessman who's known Trump for many years said, and I paraphrase, "Donald is the most insecure man I know. He has no friends, and has always tried to fill the hole at his center with sex, business, and now this."
2) Trump himself told an interviewer that he doesn't look at himself because he's afraid he may not like what he sees. How's that!--a guy with no self-knowledge, a thoroughly consumed narcissistic megalomaniac.
In it Eva Schloss, who was THERE in Hitler-era Germany and is the half-sister of Anne Frank, says that Trump is saying and doing the things Hitler did when he came to power.
Trump must be brought down. Down. Down. DOWN. He is a reprehensible fucking shit fascist piece of the worst-possible-ever crap pig racist fuck.
No reasonable person will pay attention to Albert Burneko's hateful rant mostly because the crude and insulting language that he uses exposes him as a small person.
That's not the way to change hearts and minds. However, it may be the way to enhance his standing with his base audience, so he may know what he's doing after all.
Richard Pryor was not a small person ... he was a giant, or as Pauline Kael called him, a great poet satirist. Hence, GBB's post is entirely wrong and, as usual, worthless. Though his second post seems accurate.
PS Cervantes, we need an identity verifier on this website. Let's all post under verifiable identities. I believe we've discussed this matter ... any other solutions?

Wait--no reasonable person will listen to me--I'm an idiot! My name is Gay Boy Bob, and I approve this message.

ReplyDeleteOh, GBB--one more thing--as for Burneko being a "small person" who uses crude and insulting language--is it possible you're just projecting?
