      You have healthcare, it’s just for the profit of the wealthy regardless of the human cost – just like the two wars.

    Yes, but why should it?

    Listening to Yellen is great for insomnia but not much else. I swear her superpower is to calmly talk in circles until the oxygen gets sucked out of the room.

        If I had a dollar for every time I’ve said this about her, I’d have, like, eight dollars.

      Who can keep track of all the beards for the New American Century anymore? Madeleine Albright, Condoleezza Rice, Hillary Clinton, Liz Cheney, Victoria Nuland, Samantha Power, Susan Rice.
