Doctors and Medicaid

The next time you go to a doctor, ask if they accept Medicaid.  If the answer is no, your doctor cares more about money than helping people in my opinion.  Although, yes, it's true that Doctors get reimbursed less for Medicaid recipients (Which is why, unfortunately, many of them don't accept it) whatever happened to the Hippocratic oath?  To help the sick means to HELP the sick, not help them only if they have a certain kind of insurance.  Shame on you, doctors.  Shame on you.

Amazon Book Reviews - Be NICE!

I want to say this to anyone who has ever thought about writing a book review on Amazon. When writing book reviews, please don't leave bad ones based on just ONE part of a book. That's petty. Be better than that and look at the whole picture instead before leaving your reviews. I recently had a friend who had her entire book brought down because one reviewer didn't like how she ended her book, and her troll-like friends jumped on the bandwagon. No mention of the rest of the book and whether or not they liked it, she just got pegged with a 1 star because they didn't like how it ended. Really? What about the entire composition/storyline, character development, humor, etc., etc.? Sheesh. Some people just have nothing better to do than to bring people down.

President Trump

After reading a news snippet on the Trump administration trying to do away with the positive aspects of Michelle Obama's healthier America school lunch program, it has basically become the last straw for me.  Therefore, I hereby rescind my approval for President Trump. If giving Americans more jobs means screwing over the environment, the health of our people, and allowing greedy corporations to continue their morally apprehensible atrocities for the sake of the almighty dollar, I cannot continue to support such a person. When he first started his campaign, his Make America Great Again slogan with the promise of more jobs was enticing, but what I don't think a lot of us realized was *how* he planned on giving more Americans jobs. To him, apparently that means undercutting the people and rules which aim to do the right thing and, instead, replace them with incorrect people and paths which are morally inferior. Therefore, I can no longer support him. His *Great America* apparently means giving the fat cat corporations more room to continue screwing over the American public, peeing in the environmental aquifer of life, and continuing the uncanny rate of obesity. Strike three and you're out, Mr. President.
