More than 400 hospitals across the U.S. are at high risk of closing or cutting services because of the Medicaid cuts in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” according to an analysis from the progressive watchdog group Public Citizen. nbcnews.com/health/health-…

Mark, why do you think government intervention into the free market is the answer here over an economic solution? I would argue that there is too much government intervention in healthcare and insurance, which has led to a lot of the costs being driven up in the first place. The fact is that if there was a more direct relationship between customers and cost, prices would decrease. Nobody is paying six figures out of pocket for their medical expenses. The only reason those expenses remain so high is that insurance companies boost the market rate and inflate costs. Certainly, I am not advocating for people to not receive essential care that they need to survive, but from a market philosophy perspective, I can't see how more government intervention leads to anything but exacerbation of the outcomes that they themselves have gotten us into to begin with.


Rondale Moore suffered back to back season ending knee injuries in 2024 and 2025. This photo was taken right after his second ACL tear back in August. Now, it’s been reported that he’s passed away. He was just 25 years old, man 😔
