People Living In Pro-Trump Counties More Likely To Die From Covid, Study Finds
"People living in counties that voted Republican in the 2020 presidential election were more likely to die from Covid-19 than those living in counties that voted Democrat, according to a study published in Health Affairs on Monday, underscoring the effects of a partisan response to the pandemic as officials move to counter another surge in cases.

Over 97% of mass shootings occurred on gun-free zones, research shows - TheBlaze"On the heels of the shooting in Fort Lauderdale that took the lives of five people, a new report has surfaced with some breathtaking statistics about where mass shootings take place.

Right, reduce the "stigma". That'll work great.-----In Michigan’s opioid crisis, deaths are the problem – not stigma
In Michigan’s opioid crisis, deaths are the problem – not stigma By James David Dickson
- Why deal with the problem when you can change the conversation?
And it’s getting worse.
But to hear Michigan’s public health officials tell it, stigma is a fate worse than death.
In November 2019, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services announced a $1 million ad campaign designed to “change the conversation” about opioid addiction. I’m sorry — “substance use disorder.”

...So instead, they are looking to scapegoat market actors...
...politicians are, right now, plotting another stimulus check drop on citizens as a way of helping people deal with inflation...
This would be like pushing a drowning man deep underwater:
...a group of Democrat congressmen have just introduced a bill to hand out “gas price stimulus checks” to Americans...hyping a bill to give $100 a month to all citizens who live in areas where gas prices are above $4 per gallon.
Do the math on this and you end up with an annual bill of $168 billion...
- And of course, once you do this with gas, there is no reason not to do this with food, rent, medical bills or anything else.
You end up with a mind-blowing system in which government is forever printing up the currency to compensate people for the consequences of previous money printing..."

Los Angeles joins movement to ban new natural gas hookups to fight climate change
Los Angeles joins movement to ban new natural gas hookups to fight climate change
Los Angeles became the latest to join the list when its City Council voted last week to rewrite building codes requiring new homes and buildings achieve zero-carbon emissions – effectively eliminating future natural gas lines.
Climate change experts say the shift is a necessary part of the nation's energy transformation. About half of American homes use natural gas, and appliances burning natural gas make up 13% of U.S. greenhouse emissions, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
At least 95% of those emissions come from water heaters, stoves, furnaces and clothes dryers powered by natural gas..."
