Business Insider reports on Direct Primary Care, This is a new trend in health care whereby the patient pays a set monthly fee and then sees their Primary Care Physician whenever they want, with no insurance, and no additional fees. Discounted prescriptions are included, but specialty medicine, hospital stays, etc. are not. I'm very intrigued by this idea, and if the restriction about using HSA funds to pay the monthly fee are removed, I might consider changing our plan to accommodate something like this.

Speaking of 45, here's a thought provoking piece about why some Trump supporters do not deserve our sympathy. When you choose an action, you choose the consequences of that action. The money quote:
That makes it all the more a fool’s errand for Democrats to fudge or abandon their own values to cater to the white-identity politics of the hard-core, often self-sabotaging Trump voters who helped drive the country into a ditch on Election Day. They will stick with him even though the numbers say that they will take a bigger financial hit than Clinton voters under the Republican health-care plan. As Trump himself has said, in a rare instance of accuracy, they won’t waver even if he stands in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoots somebody. While you can’t blame our new president for loving 'the poorly educated' who gave him that blank check, the rest of us are entitled to abstain. If we are free to loathe Trump, we are free to loathe his most loyal voters, who have put the rest of us at risk.________
Oh, look - a local Colorado Republican who's long on conspiracy theories and short on facts asserted pretty vehemently in 2016 that only Democrats commit voter fraud has been charged by Weld County prosecutors with...wait for it...voter fraud. I hope they throw the book as this hypocritical motherfucker.
