This is what a good human looks like. I appreciate that Rick Steves is part my community.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Just another way United Health Care rips off its senior members. Over the counter allowance is given, but they charge over 3X what it costs in the store. One example hers is a bottle of 32oz of hydrogen peroxide. UHC price $6.50, CVS price $1.89. Bonus rip off is that UHC fulfills thru Amazon. #UHC

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.
