Congratulations North Carolina, we are Great Again!

651,982 North Carolinians will lose healthcare due to the GOP's big beautiful bill. That's what I'm talking about! Love when people suffer, when hospitals close, when the lives of the working class gets harder. That's what makes us a great nation and state.

/s

Seriously, a reminder: Republicans hate you. They do not care about you.

I’m praying for the hurricane and tornadoes this season to be as merciless to the red states that voted for this as inhumanly possible.

Any Coli posters in those states, im sorry but I hope you understand.:hubie:
Didn’t even know this happened until now. This is major. Let’s see how this will be handled

When I was in customer service in patient medical billing, white men over 40 were the loudest, most condescending, insulting, angry, sarcastic, rude, over the top, with absolutely no self control, hands down. Guessed they were divorced or single and didn't have a wife to handle it for them.

As an Arab who lived in many countries over the last 50 years, many of which are not white / European majority, I can disagree and suggest this is not an ethnicity issue.

This is a class power struggle present in any society where the dominant class is protecting their interests and influence.

The USA has always been racist. White people have always considered themselves 1st class citizens & blacks & everyone one else 2nd class citizens. From this standpoint the wealth gap then becomes a class issue. They have most of the wealth & power here in these USA. And we know how that came to be.

5% unemployment yet its healthy people scamming Medicare and not working. Is that it. :laff:Let me guess you are going to start talking about welfare queens next?

You don't get paid maternity/annual in the US? Is this for specific roles?

What do you mean by "time off each week" my job here, we call it special leave — doctor appointments et, that don't count as vacation or sick leave.

you get maternity leave for 12 weeks federally but it’s unpaid. Some states like California and ny have much better laws where women do get paid. But nothing compare to other countries.
