LIBERALS FAVOR EMPLOYEE UNIONIZATION - as long as it's not their employees. Or unless the employees demand a $15 minimum wage.
FROM WHAT? Identity politics is saving liberalism.
AMMO GRRRLL has thoughts on ageing, multitasking, and the Democrat presidential candidates.
FARMERS' REVENGE:


Lifted from this Instapundit post.
WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA: New law would force drivers to listen to Greta Thunberg lecture before filling up their cars with gasoline.

Yes, it's the Babylon Bee, but only because the Bee thought of it before the California legislature could pass it into law.
BERNIE SANDERS would turn quality healthcare into a privilege for the very few.
But you know who would be largely insulated from these major changes? The very wealthy. While the Sanders healthcare plan contains details on what standards medical providers would have to be able to meet to be included in the new government plan, in its current iteration, there is nothing forcing doctors to participate. Many of them would prefer, then, to avoid the mess entirely and cater to rich clients who can pay them directly.

In practice, that means that people who are rich enough would be able to afford to pay for concierge medicine, effectively giving them VIP access to care, which can range from a few thousand dollars a year to $25,000. Heck, a billionaire could outright pay to keep a private physician on call.
It already happened with the introduction of ObamaCare. Our family internist back then converted to concierge service just a year or so after ObamaCare passed. It'll get worse - much, much worse - if Bernie is elected.
WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Bernie has promised us rainbows, unicorns, and free stuff.
SO MICK MULVANEY is a capitalist.
LET’S SAVE VAPE-BANNERS THE TROUBLE AND PICK UP A CIGARETTE: The renewed case for smoking. It's certainly cheaper, probably safer for all concerned, but has the distinct advantage of returning control of the lives of the unwashed masses from the progressive governing ruling class back to their original owners.

I've thought about it; lung cancer is less frightening than Bernie Sanders and his alcolytes.
WATCHING TOO MUCH TELEVISION AGAIN: If the advertisements are to be believed, 'real people' are pea-brained millennials.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The 2020 presidential race will 'split' the Democrats in a way the Republicans have not.

[NOTE] The polls in Nevada have closed and Sanders is the clear winner. Hanson is probably correct that the Democrat party will fracture through and through. My guess is that a new Socialist party will be stillborn as a result.
