Support the Troops with Peace and the Right to Try
PTSD can be a terminal illness.
by Brittany Hunter
https://fee.org/articles/support-the-troops-with-peace-and-the-right-to-try/
Under Trump’s right to try policies, this type of peace of mind that McCourry gained would not be granted to veterans, who went off to fight the wars he and other foreign leaders have started and perpetuated.
While sending human beings off to war is often a death sentence on its own, once they return — if they are so lucky — we sentence them to the confines of their minds where they must live in agony as they attempt to deal with the things they have seen and the things they have done. The terminally ill absolutely deserve the right to try, but so do those suffering from mental ailments where suicide is an outcome that is not unfathomable, or even unexpected.
If Trump wants to amp up America’s military might, he’d better think twice about the mental toll it will take on the those being asked to carry out his agenda.
To be sure, the right of terminally ill patients to try experimental drugs is absolutely wonderful and should be celebrated to the utmost degree. But unfortunately under Trump’s vision, tyrannical foreign policy will continue, the drug war will continue, and those plagued by trauma run the risk of taking their own lives before the state allows them access to potentially lifesaving treatments.

It seems, these days, that you can't turn on the TV or log on to social media without someone griping about how awful things are. They complain about everything, from taxes to avocados to bills to cell signal strength. But the truth of things is a lot rosier than popular media would lead you to believe. Global illiteracy rates are below 14 percent. Global rates of extreme poverty are below 10 percent. Despite there being more people currently alive on the planet than ever before, there are also more calories per capita than ever before. This is not to say that there aren't improvements to be made or that there aren't bad things happening, but perhaps bearing these facts in mind might improve our outlook on life.--Anthony Davies

Bernie And Comey Bot did the most damage. But how about the changed votes.
The republican establishment hates Trump almost as much as the dems do.
John McCain hand delivered the russian "dossier" to the FBI.
The Solar Panel Tariff Threatens Far More American Jobs than It Protects
As the Wall Street Journal explains: “The U.S. solar industry has discovered that its comparative advantage lies not in making panels, a basic product, but in adding value to imported cells and modules. This involves making and installing racking or framing systems and incorporating innovations like trackers that orient toward the sun.”
Protectionism is popular among the economically illiterate because, while the benefits of a tariff are seen, the costs resulting from tariffs are often invisible. In the case of the American solar industry, the losses will be enormous and the consequences will ripple in unforeseen ways. When a homeowner installs solar panels, they do so to save money on energy. The money they save on energy is then spent on travel, on clothing, and on other consumer goods. Reduced demand for solar panels leads to job losses in industries seemingly unrelated to solar panels. Those lost jobs have no political spokesperson.
The likely result of Trump’s new tariffs will be lost jobs and more petitions for protection coming from other manufacturers. If the president, thinking he has placed America first, has thrown out the first pitch launching a trade war with China that the world — including America — will lose.
