I'm sorry, they should be free. Only a sociopath would tell someone they need to pay $$$ in order to live.

But he's a Muslim born in Africa, exactly like Obama!

Yep, CIA backed regimes would fly people out over the ocean and drop them out of the helicopter. The family would never know what happened to them.

Even then, they won't stop, they'll play the victim after shooting the guy. If you shoot back, even if you didn't know they were police or federal agents you'll still get prosecuted.

It could actually stop the war, as it's widely speculated that Netanyahu keeps escalating just to delay that trial.

Obviously it's morally bankrupt, and there's plenty of other levers the US President could use to get the same outcome.

They probably don't make a huge amount of money on childhood vaccines. The money is in chronic illnesses, diet injections and expensive cancer treatments.

In fact, they collectively probably would make more money treating measles cases than selling vaccines.

Makes no sense to me. You're the opposition party so if you all vote for it, it's not going to pass anyway. Just vote for it as a signal to voters that you do care. If you can do that song and dance for the minimum wage, why can't you do it for this?

I mean, obviously this is due to AIPAC having bought all those candidates, but still.

Nah, you basically have no rights at the border crossings. None of the constitutional amendments apply.

Olympics and World Cup. I bet you'll see stories of athletes being denied entry when those events are on.

And yet some on here will scold people who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Harris. The ratchet effect will continue until the Democrats change.
