You'd have to federalize the health care system including medical schools in order to keep prices down. Doctors, hospitals,  nurses, clinics, all of it, would be run by the government...

If you ever wanted to know what something worse than the VA system would look like, that's it...

Tulsi Stares Down UK, Scoring Another Big Win for American Consumers

I reported earlier this week that 4chan's notorious internet pranksters hired a couple of big-name law firms, after Britain threatened the American-based company with a £20,000 fine, followed by hefty daily fines, if the group failed to impose Britain's censorship rules on 4chan's users everywhere in the world — including in the U.S.

4chan's representation called the actions of Britain's Office of Communications (Ofcom) an "illegal campaign of harassment against American technology firms."

But Britain's censorious Online "Safety" Act of 2023 isn't the only foreign threat to American freedoms. They also have their Orwell-inspired Investigatory Powers Act, which pitted His Majesty's Craptaculent Government up against one of the biggest companies in the world: Apple.

Back in February, Britain ordered Apple to create a backdoor in its iPhone operating system, allowing British authorities to snoop on the entire contents of anyone's iPhone, anywhere in the world — without a warrant, without notification, without nothin'.
...
Trump sicced Tulsi on the Brits. Wisely, after months of wrangling behind closed doors, the Brits finally caved.
...
"Over the past few months, I’ve been working closely with our partners in the U.K., alongside POTUS and VPOTUS," Gabbard posted to X yesterday, "to ensure Americans' private data remains private and our Constitutional rights and civil liberties are protected."

"As a result, the UK has agreed to drop its mandate for Apple to provide a 'back door' that would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens and encroached on our civil liberties."

IMO, the chances Kammie would have backed Apple are approximately zero; OTOH, I think the chances Kammie would have turned the US government against Apple are non-zero, possibly great.

That's 5 hours of Biden's testimony that I need to park somewhere so I can watch it later.
