Both a necessity.

Minor point, glyphosate has not been linked to cancer, except in extremely high doses. It still shouldn't be on tampons though.

What are you even talking about? What does the orange clown have to do with vasectomy, other than being an advertisement for any form of birth control?

This is incorrect. Vasectomy reversal attempts are rarely successful. I totally agree men should get one if they are sure they want no further children, but nobody should rely on being able to reverse it if they change their mind later. That's just not the case.

In this case, I'd say sarcasm.

These days I have to check who posted this so I can try and guess if it's sarcasm or something some idiot actually means. That's how bad it is.

The question of whether health care is a commodity or a basic right goes straight to the heart of how a particular society arranges itself. Universal health care for all can only exist if most people believe in the latter.

In a democracy, political leaders worry about doing right by the populace (in the UK and US it's the other way around). Only independent courts and media can make it so.

Right and left as political categories are indeed obsolete. As are nation states, but that will take much longer for people to accept.

"Consider the possibility"?? Pray tell, what other evidence that he's Putin's asset do you require?

Me neither. Soft power is cool. It's the dishonesty I hate.

The Russian people aren't your enemy. Putin is. Kraznov is.

America never spent a cent that didn't come with a strategic objective. The Marshall Plan post WW2 is a case in point. None of it was charity, it was all about avoiding another Versaille.
