No one should be fooled that RFK jr pushed out his pediatric vaccine because "he is deeply committed to agency

and freedom of choice?"

He wants to undermine vaccine uptake, and effectively take us back when the scourge of diseases devastated communities.

Or for any services to make life better for them.

The rich think all the money in the world belongs to them.

i might want a surgeon who had mad his mistakes on a few expendable poor?

i think i can say it better, but i don't care if hes first in the class at harvard i want him to have lots of practice. not to mention spare livers.

ah well, notes for later, but i'll leave this here

i'm a cancer survivor (thanks to medicare and the American people) and i believe that many of our diseases are caused by environmental toxins. capitalists have been dumping who knows what into the water, the air, farm animals. they have been living the good life while we swim in poison.

don't they kinda owe us health care? is it socialst just to think like that?

We live in a stressful and toxic soup caused by the rich.
And they refuse to clean up the planet or pay for our healthcare.

It has nothing to do with socialism.
The rich are killing us.
It is criminal.

The billionaires are used to top notch health care.
And assume it will always be there for them.

suffered from polio all her life.

Pre-vaccine case. I remember the March of Dimes when I was a small child... of selling peanuts at baseball games for the Kiwanis ( my dad was a member )... all for victims of polio.

I thought we were done with this... that we have miracle of science. Millions of children saved from needless childhood illness.

And now this. As a famous comedian once said "you can't fix stupid".

population once disease culls the weak. Except, they're assuming that in the end, the death toll will favor whites.
