Who is actually going to callout that these insurance companies set up subsidiaries in each state so that they can claim insolvency when they have to pay out? Insurance rates are artificially high to pad the coffers of the parent companies.

💡 The largest U.S. government workforce ever? 12.2M employees in 1945 (WWII). Cost: $24.4B then (~$405B today).
For comparison:
➡️ 1968 (Vietnam War): 3.2M employees, $165B adj.
➡️ Today: 2.3M employees, $218B in salaries
More workers or less? 🤔 #History #GovBudget

@crooked.com where are the posts about all the crazy illegal executive orders coming out?
It’s been basically silence from y’all since Trump was elected on here.
Conservatives are basically flooding the zone on social media with content.

I’m lowkey getting frustrated with the lack of action from federal Democrats to do anything to stop these blatantly illegal executive actions coming out every day. What the hell are y’all doing?
Nonprofits are doing more than my senators from Georgia. It’s this apathy that led to where we are now.

We must stay vigilant over the next four years - especially as the goal seems to be flooding the zone with blatantly illegal executive orders. It will be exhausting, it will be taxing, but if we truly want to live in a free society we cannot give up.
