Life on the Tea Plantation 0

Annette John-Hall goes to tea country and meets someone who believes that wanting reasonable health care is forbidden because it’s not in the Constitution (not to mention that all they had back then were country doctors who often were worse than the disease):

For now, Marino has good health insurance through her job at a public utility in St. Petersburg.

The president has assured that people like her wouldn’t have to change their coverage under the new bill. Marino wasn’t having it.

“I don’t believe that,” she said.

Why?

“I just don’t,” she said.

He’s been in office only nine months. You’re saying you don’t believe him, our president?

“Yes. I’m saying I do not trust him,” Marino replied, without elaborating.

I have to wonder whether she would not “just not trust him” if he were pink like me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
