Correct. My European friends are quite reasonably appalled when I tell them that in the US you have to spend down your assets paying for nursing care until you qualify for Medicaid, and only then will Medicaid pay for nursing home care, while Medicare pays for medical treatments.

Did you know that Medicare does NOT pay for long-term care. NOPE. 2/3s of longterm care for your parents is paid by MEDICAID. If you want Medicaid cut, your parents wiil need to move into your house when they need long-term care & YOU will be providing it.

A quick act of resistance against this nonsense, as well as a show of solidarity with our fellow Americans who are federal civil service workers, is to send five things you accomplished this last week to [email protected] …and go.

This is cool. When the doggy boyz finally get all the emails out and they all arrive (in a week or two), all the employees should save their responses and then simultaneously click "send". The mail servers will really enjoy that!

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

Sometimes I think Elon’s insatiable, toddler-like need for attention is a minor blessing. Without him, Project 2025 would be rolling out a lot more quietly. Most people don’t pay attention to politics, even during an election cycle, but they’re sure paying attention with his nonsense in the media.

If every federal employee wrote a 250 word summary of their week, given that the avg college educated adult reads about 250 words per minute, to only read every report—not record info, ask Q’s, verify anything, or look up anything—would require over 4,000 people reading nonstop for an entire workday

Scaring people into quitting didn’t work, so now it’s a new game. X isn’t for gov’t business, and not replying to an email isn’t a legal resignation. We could’ve had housing help, tax breaks for workers, and better healthcare. Instead, we’re stuck with this.
