(56,828 posts)and one of them got a bit tipsy and let slip that the secret plan is to have all the gays move to this double secret space colony where they can then glitterbomb the earth with impunity. This person, however, didn't tell me if bisexuals were going to be on the colony or on earth, or perhaps they'll have a special gay space shuttle that carts them between both places?

(182,805 posts)They jack up the prices (around $8K/month) supposedly because they are "orphan drugs" and a low population of users. Orphan drugs are mandated by the Feds to be made - Jack Klugman was actually instrumental in establishing these laws.
So a drug that should cost, let's say, $3K/month becomes $8K and a 20% copay goes from $2,400 for the private insurer/Medicare to $6,400. For Med D - I can't get into the nuisances of the donut hole but the end 5% ends up being about $350 which means the other roughly $7,650 gets paid to Big Pharma out of the private insurer and the Feds share.

And exactly what is his fantasy about "end times?"
I can't believe his constituents keep electing him.

Why take care of the planet, Armageddon is coming!
Why worry about Social Security and Medicare for future generations? We won't be here anyway.
Public education? What a waste of money!
The thing that amazes me is that these believers will donate large sums of money to the preachers of the End Times gospel. Why do the preachers need it? They're going to be raptured soon too!

(56,828 posts)The earth was about to be invaded and overrun by gay mutant box turtles. But, I prayed really hard to the Flying Spaghetti Monster and the box turtles ended up moving to Ceti-Alpha V.
So, does this qualify me to be a highly paid adviser to Trump now?

(19,243 posts)If in the next century we find a habitable world nearby around another star, and have the tech to send a ship there with a crew, the most logical solution is to crew it with nothing but women. Every ounce of material and square inch of volume in a spaceship is critical, and female astronauts can perform the same duties as men. The only real reason to send men at all on a long-distance colonization mission is to provide sperm for maintaining the human species once the colony is established, and that can be stored in cryogenic suspension for less than the weight and energy consumption of one man. Once the female crew gets the colony up and running, they start getting pregnant and having little baby boys and girls to re-establish a two-gendered society.
Of course, if we also figure out how to make artificial wombs and AI that can rear a child from birth to adulthood, we can just send a robot probe with replicative abilities and a few thousand fertilized embryos instead.

(14,173 posts)Trump is like teflon right now. For a whole lot of reasons. He could shoot someone and his supporters would not waiver, as he has said.
There are so many issues that Republicans, in general, are so off the mark on. The Dems make that same mistake time after time. They only focus on the nominee of the other party instead of all the crap that ALL of the Republicans shove down our collective throats every day.
I hope they run ads detailing exactly the kinds of policies and lack of policies the Republican party stands for, because all those idiots, when voting for their teflon reality king, will also be voting in that party.
