The idea that there's a lack of federal healthcare handouts is the worst kind of disinformation. Subsidies keep rising to make it "affordable" but costs surge upwards to consume the subsidies. Great new report today from Will.
Combining health sector tax expenditures with federal healthcare spending, the total fiscal cost of federal healthcare subsidies was more than $2.4 trillion in 2024, amounting to more than 47% of all US healthcare spending from all sources.
An excellent summary of our current healthcare system.
Here’s a fun party trick: ask ten Americans whether we have “free market healthcare” and watch nine confidently say yes. Then show them this: - Employer Coverage: 160M Americans - Medicare: 67M (seniors + disabled) - Medicaid / CHIP: 72M (low-income + kids) - ACA Marketplace:…

CONSUMERS pay extra for organic food, on average 75% more. But TAXPAYERS are also footing the bill through higher organic farming subsidies, even though most ordinary taxpayers can't afford organic food. Who pays for organic? It's a fair question. scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/pearsalllittle5

We live in a bountiful country. While other countries’ citizens don’t have enough calories; citizens here complain about having too much safe affordable food.
In rich countries, people spend less than 10% of their money on food. In poor countries, people spend more than 50% of their money on food.

It’s only getting worse. Miller: idiot or suck up? Or both?
If Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders both agree on something, run as far away from that idea as you possibly can.
"Root cause" discourse is silly; it's also wrong. The root cause of obesity is eating too much. The total amount of 'eating too much' needed to explain the obesity epidemic is one McDonald's Cheeseburger a day. No poisons or toxins or diseases, society just got richer.
Beef - it’s still what’s for dinner.
