Jared Kushner makes up for his flaws as an investor by being a wildly corrupt appendage of his father-in-law’s wildly corrupt administration. The U.S. becomes less safe and more corrupt every day Jared Kushner remains involved in our political system.

It’s bad enough that we’re subsidizing extremely profitable sports teams with our tax dollars to build stadiums, but we’re letting them charge us $17 dollars for a beer and $11 dollars for a damn hotdog at the concession stand?

I know someone who had health insurance through the work place and when they lost their job they were able to qualify for Medicaid. They work part time, pay taxes. They are now the healthiest they have ever been. It is a program that works and should be expanded to cover all USA citizens.

Also, the EMTALA law would need to be rescinded. It is required by law for an ambulance to take you to the nearest ER for life threatening conditions. The receiving ED is required by law to keep you, no transfer to a more affordable or in-network facility, until you are stabilized.
