Just that you don’t think that idiocy is limited to any one place. A leading Spanish thinker and author decided to speak out in defense of bullfighting. 

“We have 6,000,000 unemployed in this country!” he exclaimed. “Would any of them refuse to live in the beautiful conditions these bulls enjoy in return of dying somewhat sooner?”

    With the declining life expectancy for the US poor (attributable to the younger Bush’s reforms) isn’t that what US health policy is? To paraphrase: “enjoy your freedom until you die, but die sooner because you can’t afford state-of-the-art healthcare.”

      According to the report, Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program enrollees will total 68 million people in 2016 – or 16 million more people than anticipated six years ago, when the law passed. In 2015, Medicaid enrollees increased by 3 million, and by 2026 an additional 6 million are expected to enroll.
