Seriously, can't wait.

Watching guys at work cheer it on when their RN wives work at hospital long term care facilities that are 99% white elderly people that Medicare pays for around 75% of the total patient cost, when that stops in this new bill those people will be told GTFO.

Horrible that people have to be hurt and some will die for sure but apparently this is what people want.

I've never not lived in an upscale, segregated community, but in my case I believe it has always been primarily along economic lines. The racial minorities who made it in were very similar to me. I have an inkling things are a bit different in the South. Even in college, everyone pretty much just immediately segregated themselves by race, religion, and social class.

Regarding why the economic line and the racial line are so often the same, that's a conversation we can't have on this forum.
