Americans are knee-deep in medical debt (in part) because hospitals charge outrageous prices. Hospitals don’t need more $- people need more affordable care washingtonpost.com/health/2023/03…

People drove hours to testify about the impact of health care costs on their families and ask for real action. We have to make health care affordable.

Just out and important from ⁦ProPublica⁩: If you had the cynical thought that health insurance companies must sometimes use computers, with no human review, to deny valid claims, a leak from Cigna reveals you’re right. propublica.org/article/cigna-…

This really is a fantastic talk, and well worth ten minutes of your time. Ambitious and hopeful, and 100% evidence-driven. The single most important message to spread when it comes to how we should think about global warming and the planet’s future. Share it far and wide!

80% of all of the unpaid work necessary to maintain a household and care for its family members is done by women. The cost of that comes to about $3.6 trillion a year. This is shocking, considering that women also make up half of the paid labor force. bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

Sociologist Jess Calarco hit the nail on the head when she said: “Other countries have social safety nets. The U.S. has women.” That, she argues, is a policy choice—and it's "leaving our whole society sicker, sadder, and more stressed." m-gat.es/3LlxBBH
