  • A brief history of why your healthcare and health insurance is unaffordable

    A brief history of why your healthcare and health insurance is unaffordable

    The United States has experienced a relentless rise in health care and insurance costs over the past several decades. One explanation is that two major policy changes, Medicare and the Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) system, are at the heart of the problem. Both programs fundamentally changed the structure of American medicine by inserting bureaucratic and…

  • If your ACA health insurance premiums increase the Democrats will be completely responsible

    If your ACA health insurance premiums increase the Democrats will be completely responsible

    Why are the Democrats responsible? Because they tried to create another entitlement program. The increased subsidies lured people into the system with the promise of cheap insurance. It’s only “cheap” because it’s mostly paid for by fellow taxpayers. This was the foot in the door the Democrats saw to finally get to Universal Healthcare in…

    I was going to make the headline, “Joy Crookes: If Erykah Badu & Amy Winehouse had a baby”, but these days you never know who you might upset. So it’s the first sentence of the post instead of a headline. Why would people be upset? Why not! Everyone is upset over everything these days. But……

    The Apple Store: How do I hate thee? Let me count the ways.

    The Apple Store has the worst shopping experience in the world. No store enrages me like this stupid concept of a store. All I wanted to do today was process a post-purchase trade-in. I wanted to do this in person because 2 years ago I processed a trade-in by shipping it back via FedEx. That…
