The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly - 2/17/25

The ongoing saga…

The Great – I’m taking a pass this week. I find nothing great to report…

The Good – Some of us who believe in the positive elements of government are beginning to get mobilized and, if they touch Social Security, I predict a tsunami of fellow elders from the 1960s who will once again be on the streets!!

The INCREDIBLY Bad – The indiscriminate dismantling and destruction of essential components of the health care system that provide services to people of need throughout the world with the support of USAID!! It’s horrifying…

The Ugly – The total lack of legislative backbone on the part of Congress in the U.S. House and Senate that has allowed the dismantling of essential services in health care, including a unanimous vote by the physicians in the U.S. Senate in support of RFK, Jr. who – based on prior comments – will no doubt wreak further havoc throughout the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).
